The U.S. Senate has not yet approved a $1.2 trillion spending package as of Friday night, setting up the likely prospect of a partial government shutdown at 12:01a.m. ET on Saturday, when funding is scheduled to lapse.
Some agencies may not feel immediate impacts, since they’re closed on the weekend. But other departments like Homeland Security may see operational problems crop up more quickly if a Congressional impasse persists beyond the weekend. If you think this last-minute fiasco sounds familiar, you're exactly right. Lawmakers faced a similar deadline two weeks ago but were able to avert a shutdown by passing a short-term spending bill to fund some parts of the government.
