The government shutdown has entered its 28th day, with the Senate once again failing to advance a Republican-backed funding bill intended to reopen federal operations.
Lawmakers rejected the measure for the 13th time, underscoring the continued stalemate over budget allocations.
The prolonged impasse has left thousands of federal employees furloughed or working without pay, while several agencies face limited or disrupted operations.
The GOP bill has faced persistent opposition, reflecting deep partisan divisions on key spending priorities. Negotiations continue, but no bipartisan solution has emerged so far.
Legislators remain under increasing pressure from the public and stakeholders to reach a compromise and end the shutdown.
