"January 2018

Main article: January 2018 United States federal government shutdown

The first shutdown began on January 20, 2018. The deadlock occurred following the results of Senate vote over the government's upcoming budget, in which both parties argued over the issue of immigration - while the Democratic senators insisted upon funding of DACA to be addressed in the budget, Republicans refused to include it on the grounds that the deadline for discussing this and immigration was not until mid-March.[53][54] A vote held on the proposed bill for the US budget failed to achieve the majority of 60 votes required for it to pass, after the majority of Democrats voted against it.[55] The result of the vote triggered a deadlock between the two parties, with the shutdown occurring on January 20 at midnight EST.

 

Approximately 692,000 workers were furloughed as a direct result,[32] over a period of three days, before a proposed stopgap measure to fund the government for four weeks was approved by the House of Representatives, reopening the US government on 23 January.[56] In the aftermath of the event, there was a February 9 spending gap, but it did not lead to any workers being furloughed as it was resolved overnight."
