It’s day 29 of the federal government shutdown — and for many families and small businesses across the D.C. region, the struggle is getting harder by the day.  Nearly a month without paychecks means rent is late, savings are gone, and the ripple effect is spreading fast. Restaurants are empty, small shops are losing customers, and local economies that rely on federal workers are being pushed to the brink.  We’re hearing from the D.C. Chamber of Commerce about how long our community can hold on — and what it will take to bounce back.”

Chinyere Hubbard, President and CEO, DC Chamber of Commerce
