Odaily Planet Daily reported that due to the inability of the Democratic and Republican parties in the United States to reach a consensus on the relevant reform plan, on the 12th local time, with only one day left before the funding for the Department of Homeland Security expires, the Senate vote failed to advance the funding bill for the Department of Homeland Security. Given that the House and Senate will begin a 10-day recess on the 14th, it is widely believed by the media that this has almost certainly led to a "shutdown" of the Department of Homeland Security. It is reported that the U.S. Department of Homeland Security may enter a shutdown starting from 0:00 local time on the 14th, which is 13:00 Beijing time on the 14th. (Jin10)
