The U.S. government faces an imminent shutdown if Congress does not pass a funding bill.

Failure to agree a deal by Friday at midnight will result in federal workers going on furlough and not receiving pay while nonessential government functions would be put on pause.

House Speaker Mike Johnson of Louisiana put forward a stopgap bill, referred to as the continuing resolution, over the weekend that would prevent the shutdown by maintaining current spending levels until September while reducing Justice Department state and local law enforcement assistance.
