Unless Congress passes legislation with a financial package to keep it running, the federal government will shut down beginning at 12:01 a.m. Sunday.
Federal workers were put on notice Thursday that a shutdown is imminent and millions of government employees and military members could stop being paid.
Park areas that are physically open to the public, such as roads, lookouts, trails, and campgrounds, will remain accessible, but staffing levels and services including restroom maintenance and emergency operations will vary and are not guaranteed. "During the 2018-19 shutdown, air traffic controllers and Transportation Security administration agents worked without pay. Many of them did not come to work, causing travelers to face long lines," the organization said.
"Our topmost concern is Travis Air Force Base, it is a vital part of our community, employing a substantial civilian workforce who may face furloughs without pay" said Bill Way, spokesman for the city of Fairfield, the community next to the major air cargo base.
