9 分钟Plus, real estate’s trendiest mash-up: the “barndo.”
From. The new York Times, it's the Headlines.
I'm Tracy Mumford.
Today's Friday, December 20th.
Here's what we're covering.
Unless Congress comes up with a plan.
Today to keep the government funded, the country is in for a shutdown starting at midnight.
And how much Americans will feel that shutdown will depend on how long it lasts in the immediate term.
Holiday travel and holiday mail delivery will continue, but it could get bumpy.
Postal workers and TSA agents could be.
Forced to work without pay.
Hundreds of thousands of other federal workers, though, from NASA to the Justice Department.
Could be sent home.
Many national parks could close.
The longer the shutdown goes on, the shorter the more programs could be suspended,
like the SNAP and WIC programs that provide food to low income Americans.
Those favoring a vote by the aznas.
Will rise with the clock ticking.
Congress had a bit of a meltdown.
Last night trying to come up with a solution.
This is a 15 minute vote.
