"I thank my
@HomelandDems
colleagues for hosting the #FundTheFrontline event highlighting the negative impact of the #TrumpShutdown on frontline homeland security personnel and agencies many of whom are furloughed or working without pay. Tune in here:"

"The first panelist, Vice Admiral Peter Neffenger, a former Administrator of
@TSA
and former
@USCG
Vice Commandant, discussed the impact of the #TrumpShutdown on recruiting new service members in the Coast Guard. It is time to #EndTheShutdown & #FundTheFrontline."

"At today's #FundTheFrontline event, emergency preparedness professional & former Deputy Administrator for Protection & National Preparedness at
@FEMA
highlighted how much disaster recovery work is on hold right now due to the #TrumpShutdown."

"Caitlin Durkovich, former Asst. Sec. for Infrastructure Protection at
@DHSgov
, spoke about the importance of data collection & info sharing that is on hold due to the #TrumpShutdown. Failing to #FundTheFrontline impacts our nation's ability to strengthen election security."

"Durkovich also highlighted the impact of the #TrumpShutdown on both federal employees and government contractors. There are already reports that top talent is being recruited away from
@DHSgov
due to the shutdown and lack of continuity. We must #EndTheShutdown."

"Another panelist featured at #FundTheFrontline is
@AFGENational
President
@JDavidCoxSr
, who shared startling statistics about turnover as federal employees miss a second paycheck since the #TrumpShutdown began 34 days ago."

"Tony Reardon,
@NTEUnews
President, also spoke at the #FundTheFrontline & highlighted how many fed employees are currently working overtime & double shifts during the #TrumpShutdown, yet they aren't being paid. We must #EndTheShutdown now."
