Video: Trump Ends Longest U.S Shutdown, Signs New Funding Bill

The United States’ longest-ever federal shutdown, lasting 43 days, came to an end on November 13, 2025, after President Donald Trump signed a new funding bill passed by the Republican-led House of Representatives. The shutdown, which began on October 1, 2025, had severely impacted the U.S. economy and caused significant financial distress to federal employees who went weeks without pay. With the signing of the bill, government operations are set to resume, bringing relief to millions affected by the prolonged deadlock.
