Shutdown in the US

The US has entered a shutdown, meaning that the government has stopped working.

The new fiscal year began in the United States on October 1, but Congress was unable to agree on a budget.

US President Donald Trump blamed the Democrats for the shutdown.

Congress missed the deadline for submitting funding applications, leading to the first US government shutdown in seven years and the third under Donald Trump.

The White House Budget Office ordered agencies to begin contingency plans for a shutdown.

Hundreds of thousands of employees have been sent on unpaid leave, and many services have been suspended.

It should be noted that one of the key demands of the Democrats, which the Republicans did not agree to, was the preservation of healthcare payments.
