“And then we have a shutdown, and so they can’t go to work,” he said in the interview Thursday. “So then they have the vacation, but they don’t have to use their vacation days. And then they come back, and they get their back pay.”

Hassett argued that many of the workers impacted probably would have taken vacation time anyways.
“A huge share of government workers were going to take vacation days, say between Christmas and New Year’s,” he said.
