American government shutdown crisis 20 13 crisis

On September 27th, 20 13, the US Senate (controlled by the Democratic Party) passed the provisional budget bill to prevent the government from shutting down, and sent it to the House of Representatives (controlled by the Party) for voting, excluding the content of banning the funding for Obama's US health care reform proposed by the Democratic Party. However, the House of Representatives will certainly not give in easily.

20 13 In the early morning of September 29th, the U.S. House of Representatives voted to pass a provisional appropriation bill for two and a half months, which also called for a one-year extension of the implementation of Obama's American health care reform.

On September 30th, 20 13, at 2pm, the US Senate rejected the request of the House of Representatives to postpone Obama's health care reform in the United States for one year and cancel the provisional appropriation bill to levy medical device tax for the implementation of medical reform, which indicates that the risk of non-core departments of the federal government closing down on September 30th 10 is increasing.

The present situation is very delicate. * * * and party members said that they could not accept the Senate version, and House Speaker Boehner said that he would submit another amendment to the Senate on the 30th. * * * And Republicans admit that they can't come up with an amendment at the moment. After all, it is difficult to reconcile the positions of the two parties on whether to provide financial support for the Obamacare reform bill.

According to the legislative procedure of the United States, if the annual budget is not approved, the Senate and the House of Representatives must pass exactly the same version of the provisional appropriation bill and send it to Obama for signature, so as to ensure that the federal government can avoid the lockout crisis. The Senate is scheduled to reconvene on the 30th, leaving little time for bipartisan consultation.

On September 30, 20 13, Obama stressed at the White House press conference that if the non-core departments of the federal government stop working on June 10, 1, it will immediately have a real impact on the lives of the American people and the economic growth of the United States. Although the operations of core departments such as the army, frontier defense, public security and prison guards will not be affected, the post office will continue to operate as usual, the social insurance benefits of retirees will also be paid as usual, and the beneficiaries of medical care projects can still go to hospitals, but hundreds of thousands of civilian government employees will stop working, all national parks will be closed, and the process of applying for government loans by the private sector will be forced to postpone. That night, Sylvia Burwell, director of the White House Office of Management and Budget, announced that the non-core departments of the federal government were forced to close because the federal government's budget for this fiscal year had been exhausted and Congress had not approved the budget or provisional appropriation bill for the new fiscal year. She urged Congress to approve the provisional appropriation bill as soon as possible, so that the government can operate normally and pass the government budget for the new fiscal year as soon as possible.

20 13 10 1, the U.S. federal government began fiscal year 20 14. Because American democracy, * * and the two parties have not yet resolved the government budget differences in the new fiscal year, the non-core departments of the federal government have been forced to close down. How long the federal government's "closed door" storm will last depends on when the two parties can resolve their budget differences. In his televised address to the military, Obama said that although the non-core departments of the federal government were forced to close, the US military at home and abroad would operate normally, and both houses of Congress had passed bills to allow soldiers to receive wages on time during the government's closure. The key reason why the differences between the two parties in the United States cannot be bridged this time lies in the upcoming Obama American health care reform bill. At the same time, the state medical insurance exchanges in the United States will also be opened, which is the core measure to expand the coverage of medical insurance in the American medical insurance reform bill, aiming at providing government-subsidized medical insurance products for Americans without medical insurance.

The closure of the us government has caused the "war" between the two parties to quickly burn to the us debt. Obama and the Ministry of Finance took turns to attack, saying that if the US debt defaulted in half a month, it would trigger a more serious financial crisis than in 2008. By then, more than 730,000 people in the US government have been forced to take vacations.

20 13 10 10 2, the White House informed that Obama had decided to cancel his visit to Malaysia and the Philippines due to the government shutdown.

On 201310/3, President Obama called on Speaker of the House of Representatives Boehner to immediately submit the provisional budget law passed by the Senate to the House of Representatives for voting, thus ending the current farce. On the same day, Warren Buffett, a famous stock god, said in an interview with American Consumer News and Business Channel TV that he was quite worried about the political deadlock and thought that the situation would deteriorate to the extent of "extreme idiot", denouncing * * and the party's refusal to implement American health care reform under the threat of national debt, but predicted that this tactic would not last long.

201310/0/4 October, according to foreign reports, Indonesia indicated that US President Barack Obama would miss the upcoming Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit in Bali due to the closure of the US federal government.

Obama urgently signs pay bill: 90% Pentagon employees will return to work.

According to Hong Kong's Wen Wei Po (10.7), the shutdown of the US government forced the civilian staff of the Ministry of National Defense to take unpaid leave. However, after studying the military salary bill signed by President Obama before the lockout, the Ministry of Justice believes that the bill is applicable to logistics personnel who directly support the army. Therefore, Defense Minister Hagel has ordered most of the Pentagon's civilian staff to return to their posts this week. Hale, the deputy defense chief in charge of the audit, said that the actual number of people returning to work is temporarily impossible to estimate, but it is likely to exceed 90%. He said that the number of civilian employees affected by the Ministry of National Defense is about 350,000, less than the reported 400,000. According to this calculation, the number of people returning to work is about 310.5 million, which is equivalent to 40% of all civil servants who are forced to take unpaid leave.

End the federal government shutdown

On the evening of 20131kloc-0/6, the US Senate voted to pass a bill to end the closure of the federal government.

America will reach a budget agreement

20 13 12 16 According to British media reports, the U.S. House of Representatives passed a two-year budget agreement, which will be voted in the Senate to avoid a recurrence of the government shutdown.

According to the report, the budget bill negotiated by * * * and Party Rep. Paul Ryan and Democratic Senator Patty Murray is vague and not specific enough, and it takes an evasive approach to problems with more difficulties and differences. However, the agenda of next year's Congress is all about specific issues, including raising the debt ceiling, funding various government projects, reforming immigration policies and passing agricultural bills. The closure of the US government forced hundreds of thousands of federal employees to go home, and many government services were restricted or closed, which triggered a series of public protests. Protesters expressed dissatisfaction with members of Congress and called on them to end the budget deadlock.

201310/after the United States entered the new fiscal year, the budget plan was delayed, the national parks were closed, the staff responsible for investigating food-borne diseases were laid off, and the government stopped issuing economic situation reports. These influences made people take to the streets of large and small towns to protest. On June 5438+04, under the conservative tea party organization, hundreds of people knocked down the isolation barrier built around the closed national monument and memorial garden in Washington, DC. They brought some obstacles to the White House and posted slogans criticizing President Obama.

In Chicago, Boston, Atlanta, Plenot, Texas, Newtown, New Jersey and Spring Gatsby, Pennsylvania, federal employees took to the streets to protest.
