Local time on July 22, US President Donald Trump mentioned in a speech in Georgia that a federal government shutdown will occur in September due to disagreements between Republicans and Democrats over spending priorities. Local time on July 21, the Republican-controlled US House of Representatives passed a short-term appropriations bill that would fund federal agencies through December 4, aimed at preventing a shutdown before the November midterm elections caused by funding shortfalls. This temporary funding measure is also known as a "continuing resolution". The bill will be sent to the Senate for review after its passage. Currently, Senate Republican leaders are in negotiations with Democrats and considering introducing their own short-term funding proposal. If Congress fails to pass an appropriations bill in a timely manner, funding for most federal agencies and programs will expire at midnight on September 30, the end of the current fiscal year. (CCTV)
