The United States government is on the brink of a shutdown. A short-term funding bill proposed by Republicans, intended to keep the government operational until November 21st, has failed to gain sufficient support. Democrats have enough votes to prevent the bill’s passage because it does not meet their requirements. The vote on Tuesday evening resulted in a 55 to 45 split, with Republicans needing at least 60 votes for the bill to pass. This outcome underscores the reluctance of both parties to compromise, even as the federal funding deadline approaches. A shutdown’s impact is significant, and further details are provided below.
