Overview

• The Republican-crafted continuing resolution received 55 votes in the Senate, short of the 60 required to advance under chamber rules, triggering the funding lapse at midnight ET.
• OMB Director Russell Vought directed agencies to execute orderly shutdown plans, with further guidance to follow once President Trump signs any funding bill.
• Nonessential operations are halting with furloughs and unpaid work for essential staff such as air traffic control, police and emergency medical services, while parks and museums face closures.
• Negotiations are stuck over health funding, as Democrats seek to reverse recent Medicaid cuts and the White House focuses on migration claims that Democrats say are false.
• Additional Senate votes are planned today and the House could reconvene, while delays to key economic data and travel disruptions are expected, with industry estimating up to about $1 billion in weekly losses.
