An End in Sight?

The Senate decided by unanimous voice vote to pass funding for most of DHS, except for ICE and Border Patrol. Everything happened in just moments at the crack of dawn. We do not know when the House will vote on this, but I am guessing it will be soon. This entire thing was 100% avoidable, and my heart breaks for the thousands of TSA workers who were held hostage and used as pawns in the GOP’s games. When I was a kid, my parents used to tell me that a federal job is the best kind of job one can have since it will always be funded and comes with great benefits, but the last decade, or so, has shown that may have been true once, but it is the furthest thing from the truth now. I hope the TSA employees who quit due to this shutdown can come back with no problems, I hope they get back pay with interest, and I hope our baboon congressmen can get their act together.
