Government Shutdown: No End in Sight

The government shutdown enters its record-breaking 36th day as Republican negotiators remain divided over a temporary spending bill. While some senators propose a late December or early January deadline, others prefer a December 19th date. Democrats insist on addressing healthcare concerns, including Affordable Care Act tax credits and Medicaid cuts, in any deal. However, Republicans argue these negotiations should occur after the government is funded, prolonging the shutdown and leaving many uncertain about a resolution. The Daily News Now! - Every city.
