Hahn, who has worked for Chesapeake Church for 20 years, said many of the men and women he saw collect food on Monday were new faces who had never sought their help in the past. While a study by Main Street showed that Calvert County was the 13th wealthiest county in the United States in 2012, Hahn said that ranking does n't show how many working poor live in the area. It's a damn shame, Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley told CNN. It's no fault of their own, but they find themselves now in a position of, of having to come here for help. O'Malley, who attended the event, said he would recommend that those who for ideological reasons feel shutting down our government is a good idea should come here and see the families that are showing up for help to feed their families for the first time in their lives. As volunteers passed out food, there was obvious frustration with political leaders in Washington. Those in line lamented the fact they were expected to just go without pay. Hahn said he had more important things to do than worry about how things will shake out on Capitol Hill. I would say this to the president and Congress, your job is to solve problems, not to create problems, Hahn said. We are here solving problems. CNN's Jim Acosta contributed to
