It was an insult to these households held hostage through our inability to agree on a workable Government budget for all Americans. I regret that the shutdown punished hardworking families. not some faceless bureaucrats as some would have you believe. I know an awful lot of men and women in Vermont who work very hard at keeping the Government of this great country running. from the Immigration and Naturalization Service to the Justice Department and Agriculture. food service. on and on. These are hardworking people. They are the Cal Rlpkens of the Government who show up for work every single day. do their Job. do it the very best they can. and suddenly are told they are not essential. we do not believe in what they have been doing. and they are sent home through no fault of their own.
