Furloughed U.S. Forest Service worker Chris George has never been busier.

Brown says her husband is sending President Donald Trump a $28 bill after he cleaned garbage-filled bathrooms while visiting Mount Hood that was unstaffed because of the partial government shutdown. The governor tweeted before-and-after photos, as well as an invoice that reads "To: President Trump." (Dan Little via AP)
