The U.S. government shutdown crisis is approaching, and Trump will meet with senior congressional leaders

ChainCatcher news, according to CNBC, U.S. government funding will run out on September 30, threatening the jobs of millions of federal workers. Congress must pass or extend a spending bill before October 1 to prevent a government shutdown. Trump will meet with top congressional leaders on September 29, including Senate Minority Leader Schumer, House Minority Leader Jeffries, House Speaker Johnson, and Senate Majority Leader Thune.

It is worth noting that the temporary spending bill previously used to avoid a U.S. government shutdown failed to pass in the Senate. On the 26th, Trump stated, "If the government has to shut down, then shut it down."

Deutsche Bank analyst Jim Reid pointed out, "We may see the first government shutdown since the winter of 2018-19."
