The ongoing U.S. government shutdown is becoming the second-longest in history, causing significant consequences as many federal workers missed their first full paychecks. The White House announced that October's inflation data is unlikely to be released, aggravating economic concerns. Reports indicate that military personnel may also miss pay for the first time ever due to the impasse. Furthermore, food assistance programs face impending cuts, worsening the situation as air traffic controller staffing shortages lead to increased flight delays.
