According to media reports, on October 26 local time, U.S. Treasury Secretary Bensont said in an interview on the CBS program that the actions of Democratic senators have led to the continuation of the Trump administration's "shutdown" is a global disgrace. He said: "We could have paid the soldiers' salaries with the excess funds from the Pentagon in mid-October. I think we could have started paying them from November. But by November 15, those soldiers and service members who are willing to risk their lives would not get their salaries. It's really embarrassing."
On October 23 local time, the U.S. Senate rejected a bill aimed at paying the salaries of active-duty military personnel and other essential federal employees during the government shutdown.
