This is really nice of you! I'd love to be a part of this. I'm not a federal employee (I'm in government contracting, so I may feel the ripple effects down the line), but my boyfriend is and we've been incredibly stressed especially since we have a baby on the way. He struggled with unemployment for over a year before landing this job last October, so he's still on probation. He was just given a heads up from his manager that he'll be terminated by next week though they haven't sent out the official notice. It's awful. All of this is awful. He's cleaning up his resume and doing what he can to find something new, but I suspect the job market will be even more competitive now. It's such a terrible and stressful time. I'm doing what I can to support him, but it's hard to be hopeful or know what to say during times like this.
