Today I want to talk about American government shutdown,
The United States government closed, budget approval of the United States government case could not be, no money to spend. Budget appropriation power in the hands of the United States Congress, budget is not passed by Congress, it means that the government cannot spend a lot of money, the project can not continue, the wages of the employees will not be paid. From 1977 to 1996 19 years, the federal government had closed 17 times per year on average, almost closing time, the short 1 days, the longest 21 days. From 1995 to 1996, during the Clinton administration, had two times to close, resulting in hundreds of thousands of government employees have been sent home "employment".
September 20, 2013 to 30 days of evening, at the strong request of the Republican Party "tea party" conservatives, house speaker John Boehner of at least three different versions of the proposed temporary appropriations bill, the bill and the United States health insurance reform obstruct Obama pushing the implementation content is bound, but did not get the Democratic controlled Senate through, eventually led to the federal government budget has not landed. In October 1, 2013, the United States of America closed non core divisions of the federal government. In October 7, 2013, according to Hongkong, "Wen Wei Po" 7 reported, Obama is anxious to sign the military payroll case, The Pentagon 9 employees or restart.
