JAKARTA - The US House of Representatives on Thursday (28/9) local time approved a bill to provide Ukraine with the latest aid package of US$300 million (around Rp4.64 trillion).

As reported by ANTARA from Anadolu, Friday, September 29, the bill was approved by voting for a new aid bill for Ukraine. This assistance is separate from the Pentagon's budget.

The bill was approved by voting late at night, with 311 votes agreeing and 117 rejecting.

Furthermore, the House of Representatives approved a budget of 826 billion US dollars (around Rp. 12,786 trillion) for the Department of Defense after aid to Ukraine was abolished from the Pentagon's budget package.

However, US$826 billion in budget approval for the Pentagon does not guarantee that the US administration will not experience a shutdown or closure.

The DPR also approved the budget for the State Department.

The US government faces the threat of closing the government due to differences in the draft budget law between Republicans and Democrats.

Under US law, Congress must approve a budget for the fiscal year starting on October 1 and ending on September 30.

If Congress cannot approve the budget on time, then the government must use temporary funding until the fiscal year's budget is passed.

During the closure of the government, the federal government did not have the authority to spend its budget and had to stop all activities, except for essential services.

During the process, non-essential government employees will be on leave, while personnel at critical services, including the US military, intelligence agencies, doctors, and nurses working in public hospitals, airports, and prison security guard personnel, can continue to carry out their duties.

During the period of closing the government, these essential personnel will not usually receive salaries until Congress passes a new budget.
