Trump Signs Bill Ending Longest Government Shutdown In US History

– For todayNow you can listen to FOX news headlines!

President Donald Trump signed the government funding bill again – ending the longest government shutdown in US history.

Trump signed on Monday that the government will reopen soon, with the consequences of the ongoing bankruptcy proceeding, including missed paychecks for federal workers and flight delays from the death of the couriers.

The bill ends funding the government at the same levels through fiscal year 2025 on Jan. 30 to provide more time to receive the 2026 appropriations bill.

It is estimated that more than 42 million Americans depended on the National Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) in September. This program supports low-income people or families to buy groceries with a debit card.

Additionally, a moderate measure reverses the Trump administration’s proposed departure in early October and compensating workers for their absence.

The government reopening comes after more than 40 days of deadlock in funding between Senate Republicans and Democrats over a spending bill that would fund the government on November 21.

After running out of money to work with money starting on Oct. 1, the Senate passed legislation Monday night that would open the government by a 60-40 margin. A total of eight Democrats voted alongside their Republican counterpart in the measure. The house subsequently passed its category on Wednesday.

The deal came as the fallout from the burn came to a head, including disruptions at US airports where air traffic controllers and Transportation Security Administration (TSA) checkpoints are required.

Because of this, these workers call in sick, or take second jobs, creating staff shortages and flight delays.

The standoff between Republicans and Democrats has come in disagreement over various health provisions to include in the funding measure. Trump and Republicans say Democrats want to effectively provide for illegal immigrants, and have pointed to provisions that would repeal part of Trump’s tax and federal tax cuts known as Medicaid Cainks.

Democrats have pushed back on this sign, and have said they want to fully extend the Department of Affordable Care’s funding that is set to expire in late 2025.

The spending bill signed does not sign the company’s funding later this year, but Senate Majority Leader John tune, Rs.d., agreed to vote in December on legislation that would continue these laws.
