With the federal government shutdown in its second month, officials in Oregon are looking to help with almost 10,000 federal employees in the state going unpaid, with food stamps for many more at risk, and with huge swaths of federal lands going unattended. Merkley says if aid is provided, he'll seek reimbursement from Washington. (Zoe Selsky via AP, File)
