The United States (US) government starts shutting down its operations as Congress fails to advance the funding bill.

The US government funding expired at 04:00 GMT on Wednesday.

The last government shutdown stretched from December 22, 2018, to January 25, 2019, lasting 35 days, during US President Donald Trump’s first term.

The immediate effect of a government shutdown will likely be the delay in the monthly labor market report, scheduled for this Friday,.
