You’ve been invited to attend this week’s POLITICO Pro Shutdown Series subscriber briefing happening tomorrow — part of your limited-time access to conversations typically reserved for Pro subscribers.

As the federal government remains partially shut down for another week, the disruptions are deepening across Washington and the country. Hundreds of thousands of federal workers continue to go without pay, agencies are scaling back critical operations, and the effects are beginning to ripple through the economy. With no breakthrough in sight, congressional leaders are facing mounting pressure to strike a deal as funding reserves run dry and frustration grows among constituents and federal employees alike.

Join POLITICO tomorrow, October 15, at 2:00pm ET for an exclusive Pro subscriber briefing on the latest developments in the government shutdown.

Our panel of experts will break down how the stalemate has evolved, what’s next in the negotiations on Capitol Hill, and the legal and political tools available to reopen the government. We’ll also examine the broader implications for the economy, federal workers, and the 2025 policy agenda.
