Federal workers furloughed or forced to work without pay during the partial government shutdown protested outside of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnells (R) office in Louisville, Ky. Thursday.
The American Federation of Government Employees' local chapter organized about 50 people to join the rally outside of McConnells downtown office, the Louisville Courier Journal reported.
The federal workers held signs saying We Want to Work and End the Shutdown Now, nearly three weeks after the Dec. 22 shutdown was triggered over President Trumps demand for a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border.
