Government Shutdown Ends, But Economic Data & Public Opinion Remain Concerns

On November twelfth, the longest government shutdown in history is expected to end, with the House Speaker calling representatives back into session to pass a bill reopening the government. However, potential travel delays and lack of perfect attendance could complicate the vote. The resolution, while ending the shutdown, is unlikely to satisfy everyone, as Democrats did not secure their desired health insurance provisions. Public opinion blames Republicans for the shutdown, and the Supreme Court has extended its order blocking full SNAP payments. Both parties watched the November fourth elections for public opinion impact, with Democrats finding comfort in their successes and Trump acknowledging it as a negative factor for Republicans. The shutdown also halted crucial economic data, potentially affecting the Federal Reserves decision on a third interest rate cut in December. DNN | The Daily News Now!
