Posting to his social media platform, Truth Social, Trump warned the GOP against passing a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/americanliberty.news\/tag\/continuing-resolution\/\">continuing resolution<\/a>\u00a0(CR) without addressing concerns about voter integrity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIf Republicans in the House, and Senate, don&#8217;t get absolute assurances on Election Security, THEY SHOULD, IN NO WAY, SHAPE, OR FORM, GO FORWARD WITH A CONTINUING RESOLUTION ON THE BUDGET,\u201d Trump wrote. He accused Democrats of attempting to \u201cstuff voter registrations with illegal aliens\u201d and called on the GOP to \u201cclose it down.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The deadline to pass a funding bill is Sept. 30, and without an agreement, the government will shut down on Oct. 1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When a CR isn&#8217;t passed, causing a partial government shutdown, various federal government operations are either halted or slowed. Here&#8217;s a breakdown of the key benefits and services that may be affected:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Federal Employee Pay<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013<strong>Furloughs<\/strong>: Many federal employees are furloughed, meaning they are sent home without pay until the shutdown is resolved. They typically receive back pay afterward, but there may be delays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013<strong>Essential Employees<\/strong>: Some essential employees, such as those working in national security or public safety, are required to work but may not receive paychecks until the shutdown ends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Social Security and Medicare<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013<strong>Continues<\/strong>: Social Security checks and Medicare benefits typically continue during a shutdown, as these programs are considered mandatory spending.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013<strong>Delays Possible<\/strong>: Administrative processes, such as enrolling in these programs or handling specific claims or queries, may slow down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Veterans&#8217; Benefits<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013<strong>Mostly Unaffected<\/strong>: Veterans&#8217; benefits, like pensions and disability payments, often continue, as these are also considered mandatory spending.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013<strong>Services Delayed<\/strong>: Administrative functions at the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), like processing claims or appeals, might face delays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Unemployment Insurance<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013<strong>Continues<\/strong>: Federally-funded unemployment benefits can continue, but there may be delays in processing if staffing is reduced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Food Assistance (SNAP and WIC)<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013<strong>SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program)<\/strong>: Benefits often continue for a limited period during a shutdown, as the program has reserve funds. However, if the shutdown is prolonged, these benefits could be at risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013<strong>WIC (Women, Infants, and Children)<\/strong>: WIC benefits might face more immediate disruptions, as funding can run out sooner in a shutdown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Housing Assistance<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013<strong>At Risk<\/strong>: HUD (Housing and Urban Development) programs, including public housing subsidies and rental assistance (Section 8), might be delayed, leading to financial strain for low-income families and landlords.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>National Parks and Museums<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013<strong>Closed<\/strong>: National parks, museums, and other federally funded cultural sites often close, affecting tourism and local economies reliant on park traffic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; Advertisement &#8211;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tax Refunds and IRS Operations<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013<strong>Delayed<\/strong>: While the IRS continues essential functions, tax refunds may be delayed if the agency is operating with reduced staff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Small Business Loans<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013<strong>Suspended<\/strong>: The Small Business Administration (SBA) may halt processing loans for small businesses, affecting entrepreneurs seeking federal assistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Education Programs<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013<strong>Disruptions Possible<\/strong>: Federal education programs, including grants and work-study programs, could experience delays. If the shutdown is prolonged, funding for school lunch programs could be impacted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Travel and Border Security<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013<strong>Continues with Delays<\/strong>: TSA and Customs and Border Protection agents remain at work, but with reduced staff, airport security lines and border services might be slower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While some essential services continue during a partial shutdown, nonessential services face delays, and prolonged shutdowns can have wider-reaching effects on both individuals and the economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the 2024 election rapidly approaching and the controversy surrounding government shutdowns, do you think Donald Trump weighing in on the current debate is a smart move to rally his base, or an unforced error that could backfire given the timing?
