Here's what will be affected by a government shutdown : NPR

As a government shutdown looms on October 1st, essential services like air travel and benefits programs like WIC and SNAP face potential disruptions. Federal workers and military personnel will not receive paychecks, though back pay is expected later. National parks' accessibility remains uncertain, with risks of damage if unstaffed. FEMA's funding is low, potentially delaying disaster reimbursements. While the Postal Service will continue operations, many Americans could experience delays and economic hardship.
