end the unfair and demoralizing furlough of federal employees.

Created by R.H. on July 15, 2013

The President and Congress must immediately cease the furlough of federal employees. The furlough is unfair to the men and women serving in various capacities as civilian employees most within DoD. The 11 day, 88 hour furlough is demoralizing, places employees and their families in financial hardships, and has adverse impact on the local economy. In addition, this furlough was not applied equitably to all government employees such as the President, Cabinet Member, Congress, and other special interest groups (eg. air traffic controllers, etc.). And also why is it the responsibility of the government employees, many making considerably less than their private sector counterparts, to bear the brunt of this effort to reduce spending or cost avoidance due to sequestration? Resolve this now
