Us Shutdown Ends, Crypto Progress Continues As Trump Signs Bill
US President Donald Trump signed the bill ending the record 43-day government shutdown and resuming federal operations.
US President Donald Trump has signed off on a funding bill passed by the House of Representatives on Wednesday, officially bringing an end to the record 43-day government shutdown.
The funding bill went through the Senate on Monday and passed the House of Representatives on Wednesday, with Trump signing the bill just hours later to get the government back up and running.
Healthcare funding was one of the sticking points that halted the bill, with Democrats pushing to increase support, while Republicans sought to address the issue after the bill had passed.

After signing the bill, President Trump indicated that he may be willing to work with the Democrats to iron out these issues.
“I’m always willing to work with anyone, including the other party,” Trump said, adding:
The latest shutdown, which has become an almost annual affair, was the longest on record at 43 days.
The bill itself enables funding to support government operations until Jan. 30, and gives more time for Democrats and Republicans to strike a deal for broader funding plans across 2026.
