US Government Shutdown Update: Senate Passes Crucial Funding Bill

In a significant move, the US Senate has passed a critical funding bill poised to mitigate the longest government shutdown in history. The bill’s passage marks a key step towards ending the shutdown, pending approval from the House and President Trump’s signature. It aims to restore government services and bring 1.4 million federal employees back to work by funding the government until January 2026.
