United States Facing Threat of Government Shutdown in Two Weeks, White House Warns

The United States is again threatened with a shutdown – there are about two weeks left before the partial cessation of government funding. This was stated by White House spokeswoman Karine Jean-Pierre.

“In 16 days, parts of the US government will not be able to continue operating. Instead of doing their job, Republicans left Washington in mid-December,” Jean-Pierre said. The broadcast was conducted on YouTube-channel State Department.

US House Speaker Michael Johnson previously introduced a two-stage bill that would prevent a shutdown. The document proposed to finance part of government programs (programs related to military construction, transport and energy) until January 19, and calculate the financing of the rest until early February.

None of the parts of the project proposed by Johnson mentioned either Israel or Ukraine. White House press secretary Jean-Pierre said that the presented program is a frivolous initiative and will only cause chaos, the TV channel reported.Constantinople».
