The U.S. government entered its second day of shutdown on October 2, 2025, following Congress's failure to pass a funding bill by the September 30 deadline, amid partisan clashes over Affordable Care Act subsidies. Republicans, including President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance, accuse Democrats of seeking to reinstate programs that would indirectly benefit undocumented immigrants, such as hospital reimbursements and parole benefits ended earlier in 2025. Democrats, led by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, assert the bill protects enhanced premium tax credits for 20 million American citizens, with fact-checks confirming undocumented immigrants remain ineligible for federal ACA subsidies under current law.
