2 little-known dates could be key to ending the government shutdown

With the government closing now on the fourth day and there is no compromise on the horizon, an expert in the federal budget says that two dates can send things “departing from control”: the first essential day for federal workers who go without pay and the service members are absent on the first day.

The next federal workers’ salaries date is October 10 and the date of the next army wages is October 15, according to the defense and accounting service and the US Public Services Department.

Richard Stern, director of the Gover M Center. Hermann for the federal budget at the Heritage Foundation, that although both sides are on the other on the closure, neither of them wants to be responsible for the main government workers or the forces to miss wages, which makes these dates essential to ending the closure.

Stern explained that although Democratic leaders are trying to blame the Republican Party for closing, their decision is to reject the temporary settlement of settlement law that closed the government.

Democrats have insisted that any agreement to maintain government financing should extend to the tax credits of the ACA after the end of this year, Republicans refused.

Some Democrats have even admitted that their decision to close the government. In a viral video, MP Sherdiri, de Mish. , “We have to make sure that the Americans enjoy the health care they need, and if this means that we must close the government, then the matter is that.”

The former Politico Correspondent Rachel also recorded the record of the record recently, saying: “The pressure will rise to the Democrats.”

He said: “I mean, not only some people who live on the salary.” Therefore, I think it is, as you know, a week or so, if it lasts for a long time, we will get this … a meaningful reminder of what the closure means. “

Sterin Democrats likened to the “Stomb report [their] Feasts and make a dramatic situation from it. “

Republicans erupted on the chaos

“Republicans have passed a seven -week clean financing bill. They have provided them with the ability to finance the government for seven weeks and continue negotiations,” he said. “It was unnecessary. It was really justified to say, no, we ask to close.”

“Democrats require the restoration of the so -called external aid. But many of this is money for surgeries and sexually transformed abroad,” Sterin continued. “They want more money to go to NPR and PBS, which publishes left -wing propaganda. They want other grant funds tending to the left’s reasons. But the element of the big ticket is that they want a trillion dollars and a half dollars from extending the welfare program that extends to a large extent, but will significantly lead, but will lead to a large extent, but rather will lead to a large increase. You benefit from legal foreigners.

“Therefore, at the end of the day, I think they will get the blame that I think they deserve.”

President Donald Trump and the director of the administration and budget, Russell Feon, indicated that the administration can use mandatory utensils from the funds stipulated in the Law of the Great and Wonderful Law to ensure that members of service, border patrol agents and other internal security personnel are not boycotted, which can serve as a lifeline for Democrats.

Even if this is the case, the White House noted a short time before the closure began that the closure of the government will put the military salaries, critical care of the old warriors, the wages of firefighters, the relief financing of disasters and many other important programs for the Americans.

In both cases, Stern said that the more closing continues, the greater the danger in which funding can fail, and basic services begin to participate under pressure.

One of the examples of the main federal workers who can be affected by the closure of the extended government is air traffic monitors and other FAA employees, who do not receive checks during the closure of the government despite their demand to work to maintain the country’s flight in the country safe and on time. Although it is ultimately paid when the government reopens, long periods of time without paying off the pressure on both workers and the total trip system.

In 2019, on the thirty -fifth day of government closure, ten air traffic monitors called for patients in Virginia and Florida, which led to a land hiatus at the La Gardadia airport in New York and the successive delay in Newark, Philadelphia and Atlanta.

“This reaches the question about when things start out of control?” “You may put some of this authority in programs, with continued closure, more fire under Congress on both sides to reach a deal, whatever that is,” said Stern, adding.
