Government shutdown: Day 43 — House set to vote on bill to reopen government

On Day 43 of the longest government shutdown in U.S. history, the House is set to vote on a bill to reopen the federal government after weeks of gridlock. The vote follows a rare show of bipartisanship in the Senate, where eight Democratic senators joined Republicans to pass a temporary funding measure. As the shutdown’s impact continues to ripple across the nation, Dr. Michele Swers of Georgetown University’s Department of Government explains more on the shutdown and its next steps.
