Thousands of federal employees will be getting back to work now that the shutdown is ending, at least temporarily.

Mike Gayzagian, a TSA worker and local American Federation of Government Employees president, joined WBUR's Weekend Edition to discuss the effects of the shutdown, and what's like to be back to work.

This segment aired on January 26, 2019.
