Government Shutdown

Kalamazoo businesses are doing their part to help Federal Employees during the longest Government shutdown in history.

It's day 25 of the shutdown, the longest government shutdown in our nation's history. The owner of Studio Grill, is offering a 20% discount for federal employees working without pay.

Tax refunds will go out. The Internal Revenue Service will issue refunds to taxpayers even if the U.S. government shutdown extends into the filing season.

While funding was found to get the coast guard their paychecks through Monday, their next pay day remains up in the air.
