Episode Synopsis
The longest federal government shutdown in US history has ended after President Donald Trump signed a new funding package into law late on Wednesday night.The Republican-controlled House of Representatives voted 222 to 209 in favour of a bill to reopen the federal government and keep it funded until the end of January, with six Democrats breaking ranks to vote in favour.The contentious spending bill ended a 43-day impasse which saw millions of federal workers go without pay, disrupted welfare programmes and caused chaos at US airports with thousands of domestic flights cancelled.Guest: Betsey Stevenson, Professor of Public Policy and Economics at the University of Michigan and former member of President Barack Obama's Council of Economic AdvisersProducer: Pip Cook
