As the US government shutdown continues, divisions emerge among Republicans with some, especially members of the House Freedom Caucus, advocating for a long-term stopgap spending bill, while others, including House Speaker Mike Johnson, prefer negotiating individual spending bills for the new fiscal year. The GOP has presented a united front blaming Democrats for the impasse, but a lack of consensus on a long-term strategy risks prolonging the shutdown. Proposed measures include a funding bill extending to December 2026, although achieving bipartisan support from Senate Democrats remains uncertain.
