Honestly, it is kind of sad. He should have just left his legacy as 911 and retired to South Florida. I think he has a touch of "Old Timers" and it is starting to show.

He is a UGE liability.

This doesn't apply to emergency furloughs.

Authoritative source? Link?

Has an official emergency been declared in respect to the partial shutdown?

The federal statute is the source. You didn’t read it?

Like a boss you just made Drifter your Bi*ch. If he had just done a minimum of research instead of relying on an uniformed source he would have known it doesn’t apply in this situation. I guess his glee over people losing their livelihood blinded him to a basic fact.

It has to be frustrating to be a Democrat/Progressive/Marxist right now. We're only halfway through "Trump's America" and he has already seated two SCOTUS jurists, and most likely another, making three. Gasoline prices down, jobs up, taxes down, small business owner optimism way up.
Wouldn't you all rather live on the California coast and be around like minded nitwits?

Dream on sucker.
Highest budget deficit in six years and will double this year.
First trade deficit in twelve years.
How’s that tax cut for the rich working out for America?
California has a surplus near 30 billion so yea I would take that any day over Putin’s Puppet America. Wouldn’t you rather live in Russia?

These are referred to as emergency furloughs or shutdown furloughs. They differ from administrative furloughs, which are designed to cut costs.

Federal statute typically instructs agencies to RIF targeted groups of employees who have been placed on furlough status for 30 days or more, but these regulations do not apply during a government shutdown, both OPM and the Office of Management and Budget have stressed.

Still, these regulations have worried some furloughed employees during this partial shutdown, prompting them to ask their employee unions and media outlets about the 30-day deadline.

There are two kinds of furloughs. “Administrative furloughs” are planned events by an agency “designed to absorb reductions necessitated by downsizing, reduced funding, lack of work or any budget situation other than a lapse in appropriations,” according to OPM guidance.

“Shutdown furloughs,” also called “emergency furloughs,” occur during lapses in appropriations and are out of an agency’s control.

Yet even with the concern over RIFs out of the way, the prospects for a 30-day government shutdown seems inevitable.

OPM’s 2015 guidance on shutdown furloughs also clarifies the matter.

“Reductions in force furlough regulations and SES competitive furlough requirements are not applicable to emergency shutdown furloughs because the ultimate duration of an emergency shutdown furlough is unknown at the outset and is dependent entirely on congressional action, rather than agency action,” OPM guidance reads. “The RIF furlough regulations and SES competitive furlough requirements, on the other hand, contemplate planned, foreseeable, money-saving furloughs that, at the outset, are planned to exceed 30 days.”

This long document offers OPM guidance on the matter. I haven't read it all.

Shutdown furloughs lasting more than 30 calendar days (22 workdays) are also covered by OPM regulations under 5 CFR part 752, adverse action procedures or 5 CFR part 359, subpart H, as applicable. When the shutdown furlough goes beyond 30 days, agencies should treat it as a second shutdown furlough and issue another adverse action or furlough notice.

I can't leave out snopes, since they give the background about how the gullible latched on to this rumor and ran with it.

What pussygrabber’s base is trying to do now, as evidenced by the two Trump idiot’s posts, is demonize federal workers by convincing themselves they’re all lazy and expendable. They want to group them with the “others” they fear so much. Eff these pricks.
