President Donald Trump has signed a funding bill to reopen the U.S. government, ending the longest shutdown
in American history after 43 days.
The signing took place in the Oval Office, where the president made remarks before putting pen to paper on the measure that restores funding to federal agencies, departments, and programs.
The bill also ensures back pay for hundreds of thousands of federal employees who had been furloughed or worked without pay since the shutdown began on October 1.
