16 hours agoShutdown to impact federal workers' pay. And, tensions grow between U.S. and Colombia
Many federal workers expect not to get paid this Friday, marking the first full paycheck they will miss due to the government shutdown, which began three weeks ago. So far there has been limited economic fallout. But analysts say that the longer the shutdown continues, the bigger the dent it could leave.
