2018–2019 U.S. Government Shutdown: Border Wall Funding Dispute

The U.S. government underwent a historic 35-day shutdown from December 22, 2018, to January 25, 2019, due to a dispute over funding for a U.S.–Mexico border wall. Approximately 800,000 federal employees were affected, with many furloughed or working without pay. Essential services continued, but many agencies were impacted. The shutdown ended after Congress passed an appropriations bill on January 25, 2019.
