The US Senate avoids a “shutdown’ at the last minute. American senators approved an agreement on the budget on Friday March 8 evening.

The agreement, validated by the gong, before the deadline of Friday midnight. It makes it possible to validate part of the budget until September 30. It would have resulted in the closure of several agencies and administrations, called “Shutdown” in the United States. The House of Representatives had already validated the agreement on March 8.
