The US Senate rejected the temporary funding bill proposed by both parties again on the 3rd, and the government shutdown will continue until next week

The US government shutdown will enter its second week. US senators on Friday rejected bipartisan temporary funding bills again, rejecting the chance to reopen agencies. Congress is now adjourned until Monday, when leadership is expected to force a fifth round of voting on a House-passed proposal to extend government funding until November 21. The current impasse and the impact of the shutdown are growing: The White House has been stepping up pressure on Democrats, and is expected to announce government layoffs soon, while freezing billions of dollars in project funding in blue states. Hundreds of thousands of federal employees have been furloughed and non-critical services suspended since federal funding ran out on Wednesday morning. However, so far, congressional leadership and the White House are still in a state of cold war, and there is no sign that a way to reopen the government can be found anytime soon if the two sides negotiate on their own.
