The ongoing U.S. government shutdown<\/a> is about to become the nation’s longest federal funding<\/a> lapse ever<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The shutdown<\/a> is poised to hit that milestone on Wednesday, marking its 36th day and surpassing the previous record, which was set in early 2019.<\/p>\n

The latest attempt to break the logjam, by getting a Republican-backed stopgap measure passed by Congress, failed in the Senate for the 14th time on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

There are no further votes<\/a> scheduled Tuesday on the GOP’s short-term continuing resolution, or on an alternative proposal put forward by Democrats, which includes additional spending on health care and other priorities.<\/p>\n

Both of the longest government shutdowns in U.S. history occurred while President Donald Trump<\/a> was in office.<\/p>\n
