US shutdown enters second week as Senate votes again on funding bill | US federal government shutdown 2025

The closure of the US government entered the second week of Monday, and democratic and Republican MPs made a significant progress to make an agreement to start the financing again, but warned the Trump administration that it was progressing with plans to reduce the federal labor force.

Many agencies and departments closed their doors and told employees to stay at home last Wednesday after they did not approve the government’s government’s authority to continue the government’s authority to spend money.

The Democrats refused to support any drafts that do not contain a number of health -centered compromises, but the Congress refused to negotiate on their demands until Republican leaders of the Republican leaders were recovered. On Monday, the Senate will vote for the fifth time in opponent offers to reopen the government of the party, but both measures seem to have enough votes to advance.

“We hope that the vote will not fail, because this administration wants to reopen the government,” the White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said to journalists.

Leavitt said that if the closure is applied, a program that pays for food for food for low -income mothers and children will consume the financing, government employees will miss the salary check, but federal laws allowed them to repay themselves. In addition, the Trump administration reiterated federal workers threats to ignite.

“We don’t want to see that people are dismissed. However, unfortunately, if this closure continues, the dismissal will be an unfortunate result,” he said.

Since its closure, Russ Vought, the White House Management and Budget Office Director, canceled funds for energy projects in various states, and transportation developments in Chicago and New York – all of the democrats.

However, before the funding warned that it would use it as an opportunity to deepen the outlets in the federal labor force before warning, they have not yet realized.

When asked when the dismissal can be explained, Leavitt said: “We will see how the vote went tonight.”

The democratic and republican leaders in the Congress have not shown any signs of their demands since the beginning of the closure. Speaker Mike Johnson stopped his house for a second week to print the Senate Democrats to print about eight votes of the Republican financing bill expected to proceed in the upper room.

Johnson said in a press conference, “The ball is in the court of the Senate Democrats. There are only one handful of people in the country that can solve this problem.”

The democratic minority has largely adhered to the demands of any legislation to finance the government, including the expansion of premium tax loans for the persons under the appropriate maintenance law. The loans under Joe Biden will end at the end of the year and the cost of 20 million registered plans will increase if they are not extended.

The party also included a prohibition on the restoration of financing for public media organizations such as PBS and NPR and the use of a “mobile cancellation” to recover the congress approvals for public media organizations such as PBS and NPR, as well as reversing Republican Duties in Medicaid, which provides health insurance to financing invoices, poor and disabled people.

John Thune, the leader of the Senate’s Republican majority, received four votes on the bill of two parties in recent weeks. No republican democratic proposal supported, only three members of the minority – John Fetterman of Pennsylvania, Catherine Cortez Masto from Nevada and supported the GOP invoice.

In an interview with CBS News, Schumer said that he and his best Democrat House Hakeem Jeffries would be willing to negotiate with Trump and Republican leadership, but they refused. And while “to sit and talk with the Republicans” “while encouraging”, these speeches were not promising.

“Republicans did not offer anything, Sch Schumer said. “The only way to solve this is to solve and solve five people in a room.”

Some recent surveys have shown that the democrats had a narrow edge in the view of the people’s closure. A Harvard Caps-Harris questionnaire found that 53% of the participants were responsible for closing the GOP, unlike 47% accusing the democrats. Seventy percent of the respondents opposed the closure in general.

Johnson reiterated that he would not call the room back to the session until the government financing was recovered. In addition, the newly elected democratic representative Adelita said he would swear when he returned to work in Grijalva.

Grijalva will be the 218th deputy who signed a petition that will force Jeffrey Epstein to publish. Johnson and Trump opposed the release of the files and accused Johnson, a iconoclastic republican representative who pioneered the accusation to make the documents open to the public.

Massie said, “Why did we go back to the session, I have 218 votes to force Epstein files to vote for a discharge petition,” Massie said.
