The U.S. federal government's shutdown enters its 18th day, and a large number of Democratic projects will be frozen

According to online reports, according to CCTV News, the impact of the "shutdown" of the U.S. federal government is expanding. Walter, director of the White House Office of Management and Budget, revealed on social media on the 17th that due to the shutdown, a large number of infrastructure projects of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in Democratic states will be frozen, totaling US$11 billion. These projects may eventually be cancelled. Information from the White House Office of Management and Budget shows that these projects include the construction of Riverfront Park in San Francisco, the construction of water and drainage systems in New York City, and the expansion of multiple bridges in Massachusetts. In addition, infrastructure projects in Illinois, Maryland, New Mexico and other places have also been affected. Some media have noticed that in the 2024 U.S. presidential election, none of the above states voted for Trump. According to U.S. media reports, the Trump administration has frozen or canceled funds for hundreds of projects across the United States since the shutdown, totaling at least $28 billion. These projects are mainly distributed in Democratic states, cities or congressional districts where Democratic lawmakers are located, and involve clean energy development, transportation infrastructure and other aspects.
