The American Federation of Government Employees, which represents 800,000+ federal and D.C. workers (i.e. people directly impacted by a government shutdown), is urging senators to vote no on the House GOP's CR.
In other words, AFGE is saying a government shutdown is less bad than this GOP bill.

Pull eOPF backups often folks.
We have heard eOPF will go offline tomorrow (Mon). Take action now!
📣 Federal workers 📣
Make sure you log into the eOPF system to download copies of your official employment records and store them in a safe location.
Important records include: SF-50, SF-52, offer letters, past performance evaluations, financial disclosure forms, etc.
