Speaker Mike Johnson announced that a government funding package vote will take a few days, confirming a partial federal government shutdown. This shutdown differs from the previous one, as it does not encompass the entire government and is not expected to last long. Johnson is relying on President Trump for support in passing the package, which includes temporary funding for the Department of Homeland Security amid ongoing debates over immigration enforcement. Democrats are demanding additional restrictions on ICE operations, complicating the legislative process. Johnson faces challenges in securing votes from his slim Republican majority, with potential impacts on various federal agencies. Teljes cikk (Euronews.com)
