Furloughed? - JG-HPP - 01-22-2019
Not sure if I am in the right place, but we are looking to hire furloughed fed workers for odd jobs around the house. Painting, gardening, concrete work, cleaning, ??? We can always come up with something that needs doing!
Maybe it will help a bit.

Are you on Twitter?
Tulsi Gabbard, Mazie Hirono, and Brain Schatz all have active Twitter accounts with frequent posts about the shutdown and it's affect on federal workers. You might reply to one of their tweets with your offer, or ask them for help.
One of the difficulties in reaching federal departments now is that phones are not being answered, or emails replied to. Twitter is up and running:

HOTPE I don't tweet, but e-mailed the folks you suggested. Do they have any staff to check their e-mails? Dunno….But while there are a lot of people helping with food, I haven't heard of assistance for cold, hard cash for rent and things. Do you know who I could contact locally?
