Original Note:
That Federal employees are guaranteed backpay after a shutdown does not mean they suffer no damage. Many will incur late fees on rent, mortgage & car payment, etc. Credit ratings will decline, adding to future costs via higher interest rates. Some will need food bank support. https://www.govexec.com/pay-benefits/2020/12/guide-pay-and-benefits-during-shutdown/170826/
