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]
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.
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.
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
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.
I hope you had the same outrage when Democrats shut down government. So far the top 5 shut downs (in length) were when Democrats were sitting in the White House.
You see, you want to make about red/blue, left/right. Ok, if you love stats......the red/right have owned both houses for two years and still can’t get this idiots’ agenda passed. So use your college smarts if you were paying attention and come up with a plan that everybody agrees on? I’m all ears!
the blue/left had supermajorities first 2 years of Obama and didn't fix anything.. sadly they have us divided while BOTH parties go merrily on their way to destroying this country
No. They didn't.

Umm.. no they didn't. Kennedy was out for until he came back for one day to vote on the ACA, then went out until he died in August 2009. Franken was kept out of the Senate for 7 months after winning the election due to lawsuits. And even with that, there were 2 independents. At the most with Franken and Kennedy there, they had 58, and 56 without.
So no, they didn't have a supermajority. Please get your facts straight, because you're flat wrong.

Regardless, the result was "if you want to see what is in it, you gotta pass it" nancy and the complete disruption of the medical state of affairs today. I'm on my third insurance company for medicare and who knows who your doctor is anymore, but he or she does not have an English surname. thanx.
You're still wrong, and your point is irrelevant. But let's not let facts get in the way of a circle jerk.
How about getting over it and focusing on the problem here, which is that the AOPA, TSA and NATCA have not only not been getting paid, but filed suit against your lot in the White House over some idiotic wall.
Oh, and BTW: Someone holding something for hostage like this in exchange for money? That's EXTORTION.

Is it still idiotic? The wall I mean!
