Who is affected by government shutdown 2024

The clock continues to tick as lawmakers in Congress race to avoid a late-December government shutdown.

On Thursday, House Republicans announced a new proposal to fund the government but right-wing members of the Republican party balked at the agreement.

However, President-elect Donald Trump gave his approval to the proposal, calling it a “success” in the nation’s capital.

Trump's comments come after he joined allies Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy in urging sitting lawmakers to vote against a bipartisan agreement earlier this week to keep the government funded through March.

The House met on Thursday night to try and push a government funding bill through, but fell well short of the two-thirds majority needed to pass the bill, making the possibility of a government shutdown more real by the hour.
