Johnson blamed Democrats for using “the American people as leverage in a political game,” saying the shutdown left millions without paychecks and disrupted key services.<br /><br />The new funding bill will keep the government running until January 30, while both sides prepare for renewed clashes over healthcare and spending priorities.<br /><br />Stay tuned for complete coverage from Washington D.C. as political leaders react to the end of the 43-day shutdown and what comes next.<br /><br />#USPolitics #MikeJohnson #GovernmentShutdown #Congress #HouseVote #Senate #Democrats #Republicans #WashingtonDC
