BYE BYE DEEP STATE…
JUSTICE DEPARTMENT
Many of the nearly 115,000 Justice Department employees have national security and public safety responsibilities that allow them to keep working during a shutdown.
STATE DEPARTMENT
Many State Department operations will continue in a shutdown. Passport and visa processing, which are largely self-funded by consumer fees, will not shut down.
DEFENSE DEPARTMENT
The U.S. military will continue to fight wars and conduct missions around the world, including in Iraq, Syria and Afghanistan. And members of the military will report to work, though they won't get paid until Congress approves funding.
US INTELLIGENCE AGENCIES
The workforce at the 17 U.S. intelligence agencies will be pared down significantly, employees who are considered essential and have to work will do so with no expectation of a regular paycheck. While they can be kept on the job, federal workers can't be paid for days worked during a shutdown.
HOMELAND SECURITY DEPARTMENT
Nearly 90 percent of Homeland Security employees are considered essential and will continue to perform their duties during a government shutdown. That means most Customs and Border Protection and Transportation Security Administration workers will stay on the job
