Government Shutdown Begins, Trump Vows “Irreversible” Changes
Description
The U.S. government is officially shut down. More than 750,000 federal workers are bracing for furloughs, layoffs, or worse as President Donald Trump vows “irreversible” changes. While Medicare, Medicaid, the mail, and Social Security checks continue, programs like SNAP and WIC could run out of money within a week, cutting off nearly 7 million mothers and children. TSA agents, air traffic controllers, and members of the military are working without pay. Meanwhile, Republicans and Democrats are trading blame as the standoff deepens.
