US Government Shutdown Continues
The US government shutdown continues as the Senate failed to pass a Republican-backed funding bill for the 13th time, with a vote of 54-45, six votes short of the 60 required to move forward.
According to CBS News, Vice President JD Vance is set to meet Senate Republicans for lunch at the Capitol to discuss the situation. Republicans are considering advancing measures to pay certain federal workers or fund programs such as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, which provides monthly food assistance to low-income households.
- The program provides essential support for low-income households to buy groceries.
- Federal workers have already missed a paycheck, and future payments, including military salaries, could be threatened.
The largest federal employee union urged the passage of a clean continuing resolution to fund the government until late November, and "end this shutdown."
Pressure is mounting on Democrats to find a solution to the shutdown. Author's summary: Shutdown continues amid failed funding bill.
