Government Shutdown Day 3: Federal workers unpaid, California health premiums at risk

Описание: The federal government shutdown will stretch into next week after the Senate failed to pass a short-term funding bill. Majority Leader John Thune says no new votes will happen until Monday. The White House is preparing unprecedented steps, including federal worker layoffs and program cuts targeting blue states, while lawmakers remain deadlocked. At the center of the fight: federal premium tax credits that lowered Covered California costs since 2021. Without renewal, premiums could nearly double, forcing 400,000 Californians to drop coverage and leaving middle-income families paying $500 more each month.
