Apparently government workers left an out-of-office message on their email. This was replaced with a message blamage Democrats for the shutdown.
CNN screenshot: Department of Education: Unfortunately, Democrat Senators are blocking passage of H.R. 5371 in the Senate which has led to a lapse in approprations. Screenshot CNN: Department of Education: "Due to lapse in appropriations I am currently in furlough status. I will respond to emails once government functions resume. " CNN screenshot: "The email reminds those who reach out to Dept. of Education employees that we cannot respond because Senate Democrats are refusing to vote for a clean CR and fund the government," Madi Biedermann Deputy Assistant Secretary for Communications
