Air traffic controllers, working without pay, ramp up shutdown pressure
Air traffic controllers, who are working through the government shutdown, won't be getting a paycheck for their last two weeks of work, their union confirmed Thursday morning. Pay stubs reading a net pay of zero dollars were distributed Thursday morning. (www.politico.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
as a point of interest,the air traffic controllers union has filed a lawsuit against the government for having people work to keep the skies and airports open with no pay no pay...i agree that this is not a site for political rants,but the representative from the atc union stated a fact,that not just the government employees,but the airports and airlines will suffer if these men and women decide they cannot continue to "volunteer" for free...
The job of the President and Congress is to keep the government running like it's supposed to not shut it down. Good luck with no government.
Shutdown effect on lines for security
Shut the whole system down, ATC, Pilot’s ,CSR’s & Mechanics........send a clear message to that infantile maniac in the WH and if he doen’t start doing his job, replace him. American’s don’t hold Americans hostage over a dumb wall. This President has turned the USA into a laughing stock institution.
Political rants do not belong here!
Not a political rant. It’s about the subject of ATC working without a paycheque, 800,000 workers unemployed and unfortunately no end in sight. Little drabs here and there affecting air safety and I’m suggesting in order to get someones’ attention, you might need a stronger msg from the people.
It's not a political rant when presentented by the left as they have no historical perspective. I get political when warranted and it is clear that many of the down votes are from non commenters (trolls) these days.
yep...stronger message that we need the same border security the democrats wanted before Trump elected.. pox on them all... too bad for gov employees..they're "pawns in the game" for both sides..sorry for politics
