I hate to disagree about ATC with someone named Sully but I do believe the FAA has its own funding/appropriations bill(s) and revenue sources and is not tied into this general omnibus funding shutdown going on now.
- ssully 8y agoWhile some parts might (I am do not work for FAA so I do not know), ATCs are not covered. This article [1] covers it better then I will. I will only add that I do have multiple friends who are ATCs who are currently planning to not get their next pay check (the 14th) due to how things are going. They aren't hurting yet, but it's definitely stressful for them.
