It occurs when Congress and the President fail to approve a federal budget for the upcoming year and nonessential functions of the U.S. government close until lawmakers can agree on a budget.]]> 2018-01-22 15:44:41 UTC https://padlet.com/cgon_037/governmentshutdown/wish/223386740 What happened? cgon_037 https://padlet.com/cgon_037/governmentshutdown/wish/223386938 The conflict that originally led to this year’s government shutdown began in September 2017, when the Trump administration announced its intent to rescind the DACA program and gave congress six months to pass legislation that would protect DACA recipients. No new applications have been accepted to the DACA program since Sept. 5.

The government shutdown was an effort by Democrats to force a vote on legislation to protect DACA recipients. DACA currently protects 690,000 people. But this number will rapidly dwindle if Congress fails to act to protect DACA before March 5, the current deadline given by the Trump administration.

All workers would be on leave till the government continues functioning back. In some cases the people who serve our country continue to go to work just without any pay at the time.]]> 2018-01-22 15:45:28 UTC https://padlet.com/cgon_037/governmentshutdown/wish/223387211 What does this mean for America? cgon_037 https://padlet.com/cgon_037/governmentshutdown/wish/223388526 This means that it will cost America billions in economic output and a near 800,000 nonessential federal employees furloughed. Could also mean that national parks will lose a near 700,000 visitors per day, and NASA may cease operations. ]]> 2018-01-22 15:47:16 UTC https://padlet.com/cgon_037/governmentshutdown/wish/223388526 How does it end? cgon_037 https://padlet.com/cgon_037/governmentshutdown/wish/223388898 The shutdown stays in effect until a compromise is reached and a budget bill is passed.]]> 2018-01-22 15:47:49 UTC https://padlet.com/cgon_037/governmentshutdown/wish/223388898 What are some important dates? cgon_037 https://padlet.com/cgon_037/governmentshutdown/wish/223389265 January 19
