U.S. Senator Mark Begich decries efforts to shutdown the federal government and details the harmful consequences it would have in Alaska.

- Risk hundreds of Alaska jobs which depend on military construction projects.
- Leave military members asking 'when will they get paid?'
- Time in the summer construction season could be lost.
- 17,000 Alaska federal employees would face tough choices without their paycheck.
- Alaska's onshore oil and gas permits will be stalled further.

The last government shutdown failed to save the federal government any money. It actually cost taxpayers $1.4 billion.
