Chapters
We're back. We just ended the longest government shutdown in history. It just passed the House. 6 Democrats actually joined the Republicans in the voting to get this thing pushed through the House. Trump just signed minutes ago, so we are now officially ending the government shutdown. While it is temporary, we're only extending the budget, we are getting some longer-term fixes for part of the economy back up and running. I, for one, am excited to see what's actually going on with the jobs report and see what's going to happen to interest rates. Based on where the economy is actually at. That and getting flights back up and running is going to be fantastic. Let's go.
