The U.S. Senate has again rejected a series of funding bills, extending the partial government shutdown into its second week and leaving many federal operations at a standstill.

Thousands of federal employees remain furloughed or are working without pay. The shutdown has closed national parks, slowed government services, and created backlogs in permits and processing. The Transportation Security Administration and air traffic controllers continue operating with reduced staff, raising concerns over travel safety.

The stalemate stems from a political dispute over federal spending priorities. Both parties remain entrenched, and recent talks between lawmakers and the administration have failed to produce a breakthrough.

Disagreements over budget allocations have kept the Senate divided along party lines. Some lawmakers are calling for tighter spending control, while others stress the need to keep essential departments operational.

The shutdown’s effects extend beyond federal workers, impacting local economies and contractors dependent on government funding. Nonprofit groups report increased demand for assistance as the closure drags on.

Essential benefits such as Social Security and Medicare continue, but services like tax refunds and federal grants face delays.

The Senate is set to reconvene this week to consider new proposals, though progress remains uncertain as the political deadlock continues.
