When the US Government shuts down, non-essential federal agencies cease operating, resulting in the non-delivery of services and non-payment of the salaries of government workers. 2, record 1, English, - government%20shutdown

[...] une paralysie budgétaire survient lorsque le Congrès américain ne parvient pas à voter les budgets annuels nécessaires au fonctionnement du gouvernement fédéral ou à relever le plafond de la dette permise pour financer ces dépenses. Ce fonctionnement reste alors bloqué plus ou moins complètement jusqu'à ce que l'un ou l'autre des partis baisse pavillon ou qu'un compromis soit trouvé entre eux. 3, record 1, French, - paralysie%20budg%C3%A9taire

cierre del Gobierno : La Fundación del Español Urgente(Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que en el sistema político estadounidense, si el Congreso no aprueba los presupuestos del Estado, el presidente puede cerrar los departamentos de la Administración que considera no esenciales(en un mecanismo parecido al cierre patronal), generalmente como una medida de presión. Pero con este proceso el Gobierno en sí no cierra, y por ello resulta impropio hablar de "cierre del Gobierno". 1, record 1, Spanish, - cierre%20de%20la%20Administraci%C3%B3n
