SHOTLIST: WASHINGTON, DC (OCT. 02, 2025) (ANADOLU - ACCESS ALL) 1. VARIOUS OF US CAPITOL HILL 2. VARIOUS OF WASHINGTON MONUMENT 3. VARIOUS OF STREETS, HISTORIC MONUMENTS, PARKS 4. VARIOUS OF TRAFFIC IN STREETSWASHINGTON, DC - OCT. 02: The US federal government shutdown entered in second consecutive day on Thursday as Senate failed to pass legislation for the third time to fund public services. The federal government officially entered a shutdown at midnight Wednesday after lawmakers failed to break a deadlock on funding legislation. Senate Democrats again blocked a House-passed stopgap funding bill on Wednesday that would reopen the government until Nov. 21. While a shutdown does not automatically result in a full-blown economic crisis, it creates major disruptions for many aspects of American life. Many federal employees will be furloughed, or forced to work without pay, while others will be placed on mandatory leave until a new budget is approved. Each federal agency has its own shutdown plan, determining which government employees are essential. Unlike past shutdowns, President Donald Trump has threatened layoffs if the government shutters. Trump said Thursday that the Democratic Party gave him an "unprecedented opportunity" to slash more jobs at federal agencies, while blaming them for the shutdown.
