US Government Officially Shuts Down
White House has ordered US agencies to begin the shutdown. The
US federal government officially shuts down for first time in seventeen years
after Congress fails to reach deal on funding bill. The move has
far-reaching consequences for federal agencies dealing with everything from
Social Security checks to initial public offerings and National Park
admissions. Much of the impact or relative lack of disruption is determined by
whether agencies are partly funded by industry user fees or deemed to be
essential services. A red traffic light stands in front of the U.S. Capitol
building in Washington. approximately one hour before the U.S. federal
government partially shut down after lawmakers failed to compromise on an
emergency spending bill.
