So while I am in El Paso, my team and I are doing everything we can to make sure federal employees have all of the resources possible in order to allay some of their anxieties and the stress that they are dealing with. And On Friday, the first group of federal employees from the first time in this shutdown will not receive a paycheck. And that is a number of El Pasoans. So we want to make sure that El Pasoans know there are options and there's help available to them, primarily through credit unions. (00:54–01:02)
