According to a report by Zhitong Finance on November 2nd, the US federal government shutdown, which began on October 1st, has now entered its 32nd day, setting a new record for the second-longest government shutdown in US history. It is only 3 days away from tying the record of 35 days for the longest government shutdown in US history. Over the past month, American society has been severely impacted by the shutdown. Paying the salaries of over one million US soldiers has become a problem, and approximately 42 million people, representing one-eighth of the US population, have faced food shortages in November. However, the two parties remain deadlocked. US Vice President Vance even stated that the shutdown could continue until late November.
