When does the next government shutdown deadline fall?

Question

Accepted Answer

January 30, 2026 is the deadline for Congress to pass the remaining six appropriations bills or another continuing resolution. The November continuing resolution only funded nine of 12 agencies through this date while providing full-year funding for Agriculture, Military Construction-VA, and Legislative Branch. On January 8, the House passed three more bills (Commerce-Justice-Science, Energy-Water, Interior-Environment) by 397-28, reducing the remaining count to six. Without action by January 30, unfunded agencies will shut down again. The six remaining bills include Defense and Labor-HHS-Education—the two largest and most contentious appropriations.
