This is complete stupidity.

It also affects our brain trust. This is the time of year when young people are looking for summer jobs that will start in May. This is the time of year when college students are applying for internships to begin to build competencies of their chosen profession. That summer work is vital and when it comes to college internships the federal government is a huge contributor.

When the federal government hires college interns they are getting some of the best minds in the country at dirt cheap prices. Every summer hiring season will see work getting done at all levels of competency because building an understanding of a lifetime position means doing what may not be defined as professional, no matter however practical.

This hiring freeze will impact our young people disproportionately and Congress needs to legislate to end it. Participation in placing an application on a job that was there yesterday, but gone today might be litigable. The trouble with asserting rights of young adults may mean they don’t have an allotment in their college budget for such necessary actions.

Congress is dropping the ball on this and Americans will be hurt by it. Being short staffed will effect tourism and safety within the park.
