Food Distribution for Unpaid Federal Employees During the Shutdown - USA

Federal employees and contractors line up to receive food during a free food distribution in Hyattsville, Maryland, the United States, on October 21, 2025. Starting this week, the nonprofit Capital Area Food Bank started to provide special free food distributions to U.S. federal employees and contractors. Over the past weeks, the impact of the government shutdown has gradually become apparent. About 750,000 federal employees in so-called "non-essential" positions have been furloughed without pay, while hundreds of thousands in "essential" roles remain on the job -- also without pay. Against the backdrop of rising food prices and high mortgage costs, the inability to receive timely paychecks has placed significant financial pressure on many federal workers.
