Government Shutdown 2024 Update Usa. Government would have to suspend operations as soon as march 1 if congress does not pass spending legislation that would avert a shutdown. Six months into the new fiscal year and following four continuing resolutions to keep the government running beyond the october 1 st start of fiscal year 2024, congress has approved all twelve annual spending bills, which have been signed into law.
The deal still needs to get through congress, where it is likely to face opposition from. With just hours to spare, the house and senate passed a bipartisan bill to avert a government shutdown, and president biden signed it before the midnight deadline.
