Government shutdown continues in the US

The government shutdown continues in the United States. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

The vote held in the Senate to restore government operations ended unsuccessfully. No agreement was reached between Democrats and Republicans, so the government shutdown will continue at least until Monday.

The administration of President Donald Trump has halted $2.1 billion allocated for the Chicago metro. In addition, more than $28 billion in funds have been frozen in areas governed by Democrats.

Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker called this decision political pressure and sharply criticized it.

President Trump also announced that funds could be stopped in other cities and states. Due to the government shutdown, federal agencies have ceased operations, and millions of employees are left unpaid.

If this situation continues for a long time, it could become one of the largest government shutdowns in U.S. history. This situation negatively affects the country's economy and social life.

It is necessary for political leaders to reach an agreement to restore government operations.
