🌐U.S. Government Shutdown Hits Day 20 – Economy, Services, and Protests Rise
🗓️The U.S. federal government shutdown has entered its 20th day, approaching the longest shutdown record of 35 days (2018–2019). Over 900,000 federal employees are furloughed, and another 700,000 are working without pay. Flight delays are widespread, emergency response and FEMA aid are slowed, and ACA subsidies remain in limbo. The economic impact is estimated at 0.1–0.2% of GDP per week.
Meanwhile, workers and citizens are protesting in major cities, demanding urgent action from Congress and protection of federal employees’ rights.
