The US loses $30 million per day,, and $200+ million so far
in the FAA partial shutdown. There have been 4,000 FAA workers furloughed, and 70,000 to 90,000 construction workers furloughed also due to the FAA stop of all construction projects. ALL THIS LOSS because the pubs won't extend the temp. authorization of the FAA which would cost $16.5 million!

Apparently they're holding this up because they want to stop unions within the FAA.

Listen to this: When there's a Union vote, anyone not voting at all their vote will be concidered o be a NO VOTE against the Union! When the Dems refused to go alog with that, they decided to just shut it down!

I heard this explanationby a guest on Ring of Fire with Mike Papantonio this afternoon.

I told my husband "Our grandkids ages 14 & 11 think & act more mature than these AH's in Washington!
