jim vogel Staff Writer

After almost two weeks of gov- ernment shutdown, the effects of the gridlock in Washington, D.C. are being felt nearly 500 miles away on the University of Dayton campus. Katy Ridel, a 2013 graduate, is currently working in Washington, D.C. as a post-graduate intern in journalism. After recently moving back to the city, Ridel said the at- mosphere is tense. “Everyone is pretty much frus- trated with everyone. No one is re- ally pointing the finger at any one in particular,” Ridel said. Ridel said she has been in the city for just over a month with CQ Roll Call, a newspaper for congress staffers and the general public. CQ Roll Call is known as the newspa- per for Capitol Hill, according its their website. With a focus on leg- islation, the government shutdown has stopped most of the reporting in its tracks, Ridel said. “Currently I am working on a bill analysis of House Resolution HR 3223,” she said. “It is a retroac- tive pay act for furloughed work- ers.
