Military Families Preps Federal Shutdown Hits Their Pay
Season 2025
Episode 481
With the federal shutdown in effect, San Diego readies for missed paychecks and strain on food banks. About 117,000 service members and 34,000 civilian military employees in the county could work without pay. The local food bank already serves 400,000 people a month, about 10% tied to the military, and expects demand to rise. Routine and emergency care continue, but delays are possible.
