The White House says workers to start.

The White House says that the collective workers of American federal workers “and” and Shikon “can start within two days, while lawmakers are blaming the first closure of the government in nearly seven years.

It started on Wednesday after Republicans and Democrats in Congress failed to agree on a new spending plan before the deadline of the previous day in the middle of the night.

There is a small sign that any of the sides are ready to settle, and the voting failure to end the closure just hours after starting it. The following attempt will be made on Friday.

The Senate is currently postponed, raising fears that the situation can continue and threaten hundreds of thousands of jobs, as well as the risks that cost billions the American economy in lost production.

In a briefing at the White House on Wednesday afternoon, Vice President of JD Vance, vice president, appeared alongside press secretary Caroline Levitte and accused opposition Democrats of playing political games.

“If they are very concerned about the impact of this on the American people, they should be, what they must do is to reopen the government, not a complaint about how to respond,” he said.

Meanwhile, Levitt indicated that group job discounts may occur before the weekend. She said, “She was pressured by correspondents about time frames,” two days, imminent, very soon, “and promised more updates.

“Sometimes you have to do things that you don’t want to do,” Levitte explained, adding that “Democrats put us in this position.”

President Donald Trump has previously warned that the prolonged closure could provide him with the opportunity to make irreversible discounts to “democratic things”.

On Wednesday, his administration also announced that 18 billion dollars (14 billion pounds) for infrastructure projects in New York City – the City of Democratic Leaders in the House of Representatives and the Senate.

Vans at the White House’s comments represented the latest bitter blame dug between the two parties, as the Senate Democrats of the Senate Chuck Schumer were accusing Republicans earlier of the democratic “bullying” attempt to accept their financing plan.

Democrats want to secure guarantees on health care financing before they agree to the spending agreement, while Republicans want to use a temporary stopping measure to keep the government open until mid -November and finance it at the current levels.

Shomer and his allies say they allowed the government to close in an attempt to negotiate to provide health care benefits to low -income Americans. They have said that the efforts made to negotiate with the Republicans on these benefits have not yet succeeded.

“Why are they boycotting the negotiations? I haven’t seen this in my life,” said Senator Chris Murphy, a Democrat from Connecticut, of the Republicans. “The issue is that the government will open when the Republicans become serious about speaking to the Democrats.”

Meanwhile, Republicans – who control both Congress rooms but have no 60 votes required to pass the financing bill – said that the advantages of health care are not priority, making the government open.

“It is not a matter of whoever wins, who loses, or who is blamed, and all this,” said John Thun, the leader of the Senate John Thun. “It comes to the American people. And (Democrats) took the American people as hostages in a way that they believe are political.”

Republicans have also argued that the healthcare extensions that Democrats are looking for will cost US taxpayers more money and were established to manage the complications of the Covid era no longer exist.

Basic workers, like border and army agents, may have to work without a fee for time – but government employees who are considered unnecessary are temporarily placed on an unpaid vacation. In the past, these workers have been retroactive.

Analysts expect this closure to happen more broadly than the latter in 2018, when Congress approved some financing bills. They expect approximately 40 % of federal workers – about 750,000 people – for a temporary vacation.

Some workers were leave on Wednesday. At the White House, Vans repeated the constant threat of workers for federal workers.

“Let’s be honest, if this thing continues, we will have to put people,” he said.

Vans also presented this claim – which Democrats have denied repeatedly – that the closure was the result of the great Democrats who defend the advantages of health care to illegal immigrants.

American law has already prohibits unconfirmed immigrants from obtaining any federal backed health care coverage. “The Democrats have not suggested anywhere that we are interested in changing federal law,” said the minority commander in the House of Representatives, Hakim Jeffrez.

Russell Fair, the head of the budget at the White House, briefed the Republicans behind the closed doors in the form of imminent workers, although the general details of these plans are few.

In Capitol Hill, there was little appetite for a deal to end the confrontation on Wednesday.

“There is nothing to negotiate. There is nothing that we can get out of this draft law to make it more strict or cleaner than it is,” said Republican spokesman Mike Johnson.

On Friday, another vote on the short -term financing bill suggested by the Republicans.
