The US federal government has shut down again due to budget failures affecting multiple departments.

Notizie in breve

CCTV News indicates that several US federal agencies exhausted their operational funding in the early morning hours of January 31st, sparking yet another government closure without an approved budget. Notably, this occurs barely three months following last year's unprecedented 43-day halt—the lengthiest in American history. Even more troubling: should Congress greenlight the budget proposal currently under consideration, certain departments would receive merely two weeks of funding. Consequently, analysts believe the government might confront a third shutdown within just a fortnight.

PANews reported on January 31 that, according to CCTV News, several departments of the US federal government ran out of operating funds in the early hours of January 31 local time. Due to the lack of a new budget, multiple US government departments have again entered a shutdown. This comes less than three months after the end of the longest government shutdown in US history last year, lasting 43 days. Even if the new budget currently being voted on in Congress is successfully passed, some departments will only receive funding for two weeks. In other words, the US government may face its third shutdown in the short term in just half a month.
