Orbison. &ldquo;Even if it&rsquo;s just to come in and use our high-speed internet or get a free cup of coffee, hopefully it helps.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>To participate, federal employees must show their government ID and they will be granted free access to the CapeSpace business lounge, which includes gourmet coffee and high-speed internet, for the duration of the shutdown. Located at 100 Independence Way in Hyannis, CapeSpace is open Monday through Friday, 8 am to 6 pm.<\/p>\n<p>The offer extends to working family members of federal employees. &ldquo;Some of those affected might have family members who work from home and need a distraction-free workspace for a few hours,&rdquo; Orbison said. &ldquo;I&rsquo;m happy to do what I can and wish I could do more.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Since December 22, the government has been in a partial shutdown that is now the second longest in U.S. history. If it extends until Saturday, it will tie for the longest, at 21 days, which occurred in 1996.<\/p>\n<p>It is estimated that roughly 800,000 government workers have been impacted by this shutdown and are currently living without pay. The shutdown has impacted a number of local residents, including those serving at Joint Base Cape Cod as well as employees at the Cape Cod National Seashore.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About CapeSpace<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Opened in June 2016, CapeSpace is a coworking facility based in Hyannis that offers fully-furnished private offices, conference rooms, a business lounge, and virtual offices with an array of business amenities including high-speed fiber optic internet service from OpenCape; a gourmet beverage bar; copy\/print\/fax\/scan equipment; administrative services; and more, all available on flexible terms.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">To learn more about CapeSpace, visit <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.CapeSpace.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.CapeSpace.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><span style='font-size:18px !important'>Media Contact<\/span><br \/><strong>Company Name:<\/strong> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/companyname\/CapeSpace.com_42724.html\">CapeSpace<\/a><br \/><strong>Contact Person:<\/strong> Robbin Orbison<br \/><strong>Email:<\/strong> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/email_contact_us.php?pr=capespace-offers-free-access-to-federal-employees-impacted-by-government-shutdown\">Send Email<\/a><br \/><strong>Phone:<\/strong> 508-221-3455<br \/><strong>City:<\/strong> Hyannis<br \/><strong>State:<\/strong> MA<br \/><strong>Country:<\/strong> United States<br \/><strong>Website:<\/strong> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.CapeSpace.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.CapeSpace.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/press_stat.php?pr=capespace-offers-free-access-to-federal-employees-impacted-by-government-shutdown\" alt=\"\" width=\"1px\" height=\"1px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CapeSpace is offering federal employees and their working family members who have been impacted by the government shutdown free access to its facility and services. &ldquo;We feel the need to<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.honolulunewsnow.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/134314"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.honolulunewsnow.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.honolulunewsnow.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.honolulunewsnow.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.honolulunewsnow.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=134314"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/www.honolulunewsnow.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/134314\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.honolulunewsnow.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=134314"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.honolulunewsnow.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=134314"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.honolulunewsnow.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=134314"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
