Contributing sentiments towards policy:

47% : "I was never afraid to speak my mind before, I never felt afraid to talk; now, people are afraid," said one Arizona TSA worker who was forced to borrow money and refinance their home due to the shutdown, speaking with NBC News.
40% : "We really need to stand up for our services that we provide and the agencies that enforce laws because, since Trump has been in office, his main goal has been destroying these agencies.
24% : " Trump has already said he would slash roughly 300,000 federal workers in 2025, making good on his campaign pledge to drastically cut federal spending and trim the federal government.
23% : And, with Trump threatening to trim the federal workforce even more amid the government shutdown, specifically "Democrat agencies," federal workers say they're afraid to speak out against the administration publicly.
