Midnight deadline arrives for six remaining FY2026 spending bills covering DHS and DOD

At midnight on January 30, 2026, a continuing resolution covering six remaining FY2026 appropriations bills — including funding for the Departments of Defense, Homeland Security, State, Labor, Transportation, and Treasury — expired, triggering a partial government shutdown affecting roughly half of all federal departments. Congress had already passed five of the twelve annual appropriations bills. The shutdown was the second of 2026, both stemming from disputes over ICE reform conditions attached to DHS funding.
