Government Shutdown Forces Federally Funded Closures Around The Nation

Close Up, sign reading: "Because of the Federal Government SHUTDOWN, All National Park Are CLOSED". Despite being kept about 100 meters back from the Lincoln Memorial due to the federal government shutdown, tourists continued to visit the monument and pose for photographs along the National Mall October 1, 2013 in Washington, DC. National Park Service park facilities and grounds were closed and more than 21,000 of the service's employees were furloughed after Congress was unable to agree on a federal budget and shut down for the first time in 17 years.
