This is a travesty.

Oh no what will we do as a country.   We are doomed!!!!1111

 

 

State and local farm service centers operated by the Agriculture Department would close, which means that no staff would be available to answer questions or assist farmers in signing up for new programs under the Farm Bill recently approved by Congress, according to a memo prepared by Democrats on the Senate Appropriations Committee.

National parks could possibly close or offer just limited services. During a shutdown last January, gates at national parks remained open for people to enter but few staff were on hand to protect visitors and park resources. Buildings, such as visitor centers, were shuttered, and sometimes that included restrooms, according to the National Parks Conservation Association.

More than 30 million small businesses would no longer have access to federally assisted loans and technical assistance since Small Business Administration guarantees to back loans would freeze.

Americans looking to buy a new home or refinance a mortgage insured by the Federal House Administration would be put on standby.

Civil litigation, payments to victims and training for state and local law enforcement would stop during a shutdown.
