In light of the troubling fact that Congress is unable to agree to terms on a spending plan that would pay for the functions many Americans rely on, I want to assure our community that here at Muckleshoot, we are able to maintain operations, pay employees, and other expenses.  

Muckleshoot has already secured adequate grant funding to continue to provide the services and functions our community expects through the end of this fiscal year.

I will continue to monitor the situation and make any necessary adjustments to ensure the least possible disruption while Congress works toward an eventual agreement.
