The United States entered a federal shutdown at the first minute of dawn on Wednesday after Congress failed to pass a partial budget extension, an action that will result in the cessation of work at many federal departments and agencies and put their employees on forced leave.

This government shutdown, the first in about 7 years when the country witnessed the longest closure in its history (which lasted for 35 days), went into effect after Republicans failed to extend government funding beyond Tuesday, which marks the end of the fiscal year in the United States.

It is expected that about 750,000 federal workers will be forced into temporary leave, with some potentially being fired by President Donald Trump's administration.

Many offices are expected to close, possibly permanently, at a time when Trump promises to "do things that are irreversible and harmful" as a form of punishment.

His deportation agenda is expected to proceed at full speed, while education, environmental services, and others falter
