Congress to Crush U.S. Record This Week for Shutdown

“Congress is on track this week to break an unflattering record: presiding over the longest government shutdown in U.S. history,” Politico reports.

“The ongoing funding lapse will hit the 35-day mark Tuesday night, eclipsing the partial shutdown that ended in early 2019 and also occurred under President Donald Trump.”

Playbook : ”White House officials had been running an informal pool at the start of the shutdown over how long the whole thing would last. The longest anyone predicted was 10 days.”
