These include reducing the federal workforce and dismantling entire government agencies. With limited legislative options remaining, critics are now expected to focus on challenging these actions through the courts.<\/p>\n<p>Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer played a decisive role in the outcome. With a shutdown looming, Schumer announced that he would drop his party\u2019s opposition to the spending package, prioritizing the continuation of government services over political conflict.<\/p>\n<style>\n    .dark-mode .read-more {background-color: #343a40 !important;}\n<\/style>\n<div class=\"read-more pb-3 pt-3 pt-md-2 px-3 my-4 border bg-light\">\n    <h5 class=\"text-uppercase border-bottom mb-3 pb-1 d-none d-md-block\">READ MORE:<\/h5>\n    <a class=\"article row\" href=\"https:\/\/cryptodnes.bg\/en\/bitcoins-bull-run-at-risk-top-analyst-highlights-key-level\/\" title=\"Bitcoin&#8217;s Bull Run at Risk?
