The federal government reopened on November 12 after a prolonged funding stalemate, marking the end of the longest shutdown in U.S. history. The funding bill cleared Congress with a narrow House vote of 222-209 and was promptly signed by Donald Trump. The agreement restores pay for hundreds of thousands of federal workers, resumes many services including transportation and food programmes, and ends months of disruption. Despite the relief, the deal leaves major policy issues unresolved — especially healthcare subsidies — raising fears of future funding battles.
