Meanwhile, President Trump pledged Sunday at an event to mark the Navy&#8217;s 250th anniversary in Norfolk, Virginia, to &#8220;get our service members every last penny&#8221; despite the government shutdown.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Don&#8217;t worry about it,&#8221; Mr. Trump said. &#8220;It&#8217;s all coming, it&#8217;s coming.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But exactly how the issue would be resolved remains to be seen. On Tuesday, House Speaker Mike Johnson said he would be open to an emergency measure to pay members of the military that would come separately from a broader bill to open the government. But Senate Majority Leader John Thune quickly chimed in at the news conference, adding, &#8220;you don&#8217;t need that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Obviously there are certain constituencies, many of whom are going to be impacted in a very negative way by what&#8217;s happening here,&#8221; Thune said. &#8220;But the simplest way to end it is not try to exempt this group or that group or that group, it&#8217;s to get the government open.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"post-update__footer\">\n              <span class=\"post-update__author\"><br \/>\n                By Kaia  Hubbard              <\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-update__share post-update__share--desktop\">\n<ul class=\"sharebar\">\n<li class=\"sharebar__button-container sharebar__button-container--service  \">\n<p>            <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cbsnews.com%2Flive-updates%2Fgovernment-shutdown-latest-senate-votes-day-8%2F%23post-update-2470ec6c\" class=\"sharebar__button sharebar__button--type-facebook lazyload\" title=\"facebook\" target=\"_blank\" data-component=\"popups\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\n                <svg viewbox=\"0 0 32 32\" class=\"sharebar__icon sharebar__icon--facebook\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n        <use xlink:href=\"#icon-social-facebook\"\/>\n      <\/svg><br \/>\n      <\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"sharebar__button-container sharebar__button-container--service  \">\n<p>            <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?related=cbsnews,CBSPolitics&amp;via=CBSPolitics&amp;text=Hegseth%20blasts%20Schumer%20over%20military%20paychecks&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cbsnews.com%2Flive-updates%2Fgovernment-shutdown-latest-senate-votes-day-8%2F%23post-update-2470ec6c\" class=\"sharebar__button sharebar__button--type-twitter lazyload\" title=\"twitter\" target=\"_blank\" data-component=\"popups\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\n                <svg viewbox=\"0 0 32 32\" class=\"sharebar__icon sharebar__icon--twitter\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n        <use xlink:href=\"#icon-social-twitter\"\/>\n      <\/svg><br \/>\n      <\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"sharebar__button-container sharebar__button-container--service  \">\n<p>            <a href=\"http:\/\/reddit.com\/submit?title=Hegseth%20blasts%20Schumer%20over%20military%20paychecks&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cbsnews.com%2Flive-updates%2Fgovernment-shutdown-latest-senate-votes-day-8%2F%23post-update-2470ec6c\" class=\"sharebar__button sharebar__button--type-reddit lazyload\" title=\"reddit\" target=\"_blank\" data-component=\"popups\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\n                <svg viewbox=\"0 0 32 32\" class=\"sharebar__icon sharebar__icon--reddit\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n        <use xlink:href=\"#icon-social-reddit\"\/>\n      <\/svg><br \/>\n      <\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"sharebar__button-container sharebar__button-container--service  \">\n            <textarea class=\"sharebar__textarea\">https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/live-updates\/government-shutdown-latest-senate-votes-day-8\/#post-update-2470ec6c<\/textarea><\/p>\n<p>            <a href=\"#\" class=\"sharebar__button sharebar__button--type-link lazyload\" data-link-share-options=\"{\" shareurl=\"\" data-component=\"[\" link-share=\"\" title=\"link\"><br \/>\n                  <svg viewbox=\"0 0 32 32\" class=\"sharebar__icon sharebar__icon--link\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n        <use xlink:href=\"#icon-social-link\"\/>\n      <\/svg><br \/>\n      <\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"content__post--bb396ebd-c5fa-4d3b-82de-8a2a00da7b81\">\n            <a name=\"post-update-bb396ebd\" class=\"post-update__anchor-link\">\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>            <time class=\"post-update__time-ago\" datetime=\"2025-10-08T09:44:00-0400\"><br \/>\n              2m ago<br \/>\n            <\/time><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"post-update__headline\">White House memo on back pay for furloughed workers met with pushback on Capitol Hill<\/h2>\n<div class=\"post-update__bodytext\">\n<p>A suggestion by the White House on Tuesday that furloughed workers are not entitled to back pay at the end of the shutdown was met with pushback from members of both parties on Capitol Hill, with some Republicans saying the <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/live-updates\/government-shutdown-latest-senate-vote-trump-air-traffic-controllers\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">memo<\/a><\/span> that floated the issue was not helping.<\/p>\n<p>A 2019 law passed by Congress and signed by President Trump has been widely interpreted to guarantee back pay for furloughed workers after a funding lapse, but a memo from the White House Office of Management and Budget said that might not be the case. The legal analysis asserted that the law meant that Congress would have to approve back pay for furloughed workers.<\/p>\n<p>President Trump, asked to comment on whether furloughed workers would get back pay, said at the White House that &#8220;I would say it depends on who we&#8217;re talking about.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Republicans on Capitol Hill on Tuesday said they believed furloughed workers would get paid after a shutdown.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I haven&#8217;t looked at the memo specifically yet. My assumption is that furloughed workers will get back pay,&#8221; Majority Leader John Thune said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>House Speaker Mike Johnson said, &#8220;I hope that the furloughed workers receive back pay, of course.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Sen.

Republicans have been pushing for a House-passed measure to keep the government funded until Nov. 21, while Democrats have a separate measure to fund the government through October that would also extend health insurance tax credits, which has become Democrats&#8217; key demand in the funding fight.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Republicans failed to pick up any new support for their measure on Monday. And with 53 Republicans in the upper chamber, support from Democrats is needed to advance a measure to fund the government.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Just one Democrat initially crossed the aisle to support the bill in a vote last month. But on the next vote, which came last week, two more senators crossed the aisle to back it. Since then, Republicans have been unable to peel off any additional support from Democrats in two more attempts.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"post-update__footer\">\n              <span class=\"post-update__author\"><br \/>\n                By Kaia  Hubbard              <\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-update__share post-update__share--desktop\">\n<ul class=\"sharebar\">\n<li class=\"sharebar__button-container sharebar__button-container--service  \">\n<p>            <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cbsnews.com%2Flive-updates%2Fgovernment-shutdown-latest-senate-votes-day-8%2F%23post-update-6a655feb\" class=\"sharebar__button sharebar__button--type-facebook lazyload\" title=\"facebook\" target=\"_blank\" data-component=\"popups\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\n                <svg viewbox=\"0 0 32 32\" class=\"sharebar__icon sharebar__icon--facebook\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n        <use xlink:href=\"#icon-social-facebook\"\/>\n      <\/svg><br \/>\n      <\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"sharebar__button-container sharebar__button-container--service  \">\n<p>            <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?related=cbsnews,CBSPolitics&amp;via=CBSPolitics&amp;text=Senate%20set%20to%20vote%20for%20sixth%20time%20on%20measures%20to%20fund%20the%20government&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cbsnews.com%2Flive-updates%2Fgovernment-shutdown-latest-senate-votes-day-8%2F%23post-update-6a655feb\" class=\"sharebar__button sharebar__button--type-twitter lazyload\" title=\"twitter\" target=\"_blank\" data-component=\"popups\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\n                <svg viewbox=\"0 0 32 32\" class=\"sharebar__icon sharebar__icon--twitter\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n        <use xlink:href=\"#icon-social-twitter\"\/>\n      <\/svg><br \/>\n      <\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"sharebar__button-container sharebar__button-container--service  \">\n<p>            <a href=\"http:\/\/reddit.com\/submit?title=Senate%20set%20to%20vote%20for%20sixth%20time%20on%20measures%20to%20fund%20the%20government&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cbsnews.com%2Flive-updates%2Fgovernment-shutdown-latest-senate-votes-day-8%2F%23post-update-6a655feb\" class=\"sharebar__button sharebar__button--type-reddit lazyload\" title=\"reddit\" target=\"_blank\" data-component=\"popups\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\n                <svg viewbox=\"0 0 32 32\" class=\"sharebar__icon sharebar__icon--reddit\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n        <use xlink:href=\"#icon-social-reddit\"\/>\n      <\/svg><br \/>\n      <\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"sharebar__button-container sharebar__button-container--service  \">\n            <textarea class=\"sharebar__textarea\">https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/live-updates\/government-shutdown-latest-senate-votes-day-8\/#post-update-6a655feb<\/textarea><\/p>\n<p>            <a href=\"#\" class=\"sharebar__button sharebar__button--type-link lazyload\" data-link-share-options=\"{\" shareurl=\"\" data-component=\"[\" link-share=\"\" title=\"link\"><br \/>\n                  <svg viewbox=\"0 0 32 32\" class=\"sharebar__icon sharebar__icon--link\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n        <use xlink:href=\"#icon-social-link\"\/>\n      <\/svg><br \/>\n      <\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"content__post--a92f858b-37d0-45a4-b1e5-ffcefdb332ca\">\n            <a name=\"post-update-a92f858b\" class=\"post-update__anchor-link\">\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>            <time class=\"post-update__time-ago\" datetime=\"2025-10-08T08:59:00-0400\"><br \/>\n              47m ago<br \/>\n            <\/time><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"post-update__headline\">Flights delayed at some U.S. airports amid shortage of air traffic controllers<\/h2>\n<div class=\"post-update__bodytext\">\n<p>Airports in U.S. cities including Denver; Newark, New Jersey; and <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/losangeles\/news\/hollywood-burbank-airport-without-air-traffic-controllers-government-shutdown\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Burbank, California<\/a><\/span>, experienced flight delays Monday amid shortages of air traffic controllers, according to federal flight data.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Federal officials have flagged more air traffic control facilities for low staffing levels in recent days than they have since the summer of 2022, when the post-COVID travel boom sent delays and cancellations soaring, according to a CBS News data analysis of Federal Aviation Administration airspace advisories.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/losangeles\/news\/hollywood-burbank-airport-without-air-traffic-controllers-government-shutdown\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Flights into Hollywood Burbank Airport<\/a><\/span>, which serves Los Angeles, were slowed until 1 a.m. Tuesday, resulting in average delays of 2.5 hours, FAA data shows.

Thomas Massie of Kentucky and Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna of California have been leading the effort, known as a discharge petition, to force the vote, which is on the verge of succeeding once lawmakers return. House GOP leaders have opposed putting the legislation on the floor, arguing it doesn&#8217;t do enough to protect victims. Though leaders control what receives a vote, a discharge petition enables members of the lower chamber to bypass leadership if they can get a majority, 218, to sign on.<\/p>\n<p>The petition currently stands at 217 signatures, including all Democrats and four Republicans. And the House&#8217;s newest member, Adelita Grijalva, won a special election last month and is expected to deliver the final signature. But her swearing-in has been delayed with the House in recess. Massie has accused House Speaker Mike Johnson of &#8220;doing everything he can&#8221; to block a vote on the bill.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>When asked Tuesday whether the delay in Grijalva&#8217;s swearing in had anything to do with the Epstein petition, Johnson told reporters it has &#8220;nothing to do with that at all&#8221; and reiterated that she will be sworn in once the House returns.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"post-update__footer\">\n              <span class=\"post-update__author\"><br \/>\n                By Kaia  Hubbard              <\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-update__share post-update__share--desktop\">\n<ul class=\"sharebar\">\n<li class=\"sharebar__button-container sharebar__button-container--service  \">\n<p>            <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cbsnews.com%2Flive-updates%2Fgovernment-shutdown-latest-senate-votes-day-8%2F%23post-update-1e200a18\" class=\"sharebar__button sharebar__button--type-facebook lazyload\" title=\"facebook\" target=\"_blank\" data-component=\"popups\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\n                <svg viewbox=\"0 0 32 32\" class=\"sharebar__icon sharebar__icon--facebook\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n        <use xlink:href=\"#icon-social-facebook\"\/>\n      <\/svg><br \/>\n      <\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"sharebar__button-container sharebar__button-container--service  \">\n<p>            <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?related=cbsnews,CBSPolitics&amp;via=CBSPolitics&amp;text=Effort%20to%20force%20vote%20on%20release%20of%20Epstein%20files%20stalls%20with%20House%20away%20amid%20shutdown&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cbsnews.com%2Flive-updates%2Fgovernment-shutdown-latest-senate-votes-day-8%2F%23post-update-1e200a18\" class=\"sharebar__button sharebar__button--type-twitter lazyload\" title=\"twitter\" target=\"_blank\" data-component=\"popups\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\n                <svg viewbox=\"0 0 32 32\" class=\"sharebar__icon sharebar__icon--twitter\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n        <use xlink:href=\"#icon-social-twitter\"\/>\n      <\/svg><br \/>\n      <\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"sharebar__button-container sharebar__button-container--service  \">\n<p>            <a href=\"http:\/\/reddit.com\/submit?title=Effort%20to%20force%20vote%20on%20release%20of%20Epstein%20files%20stalls%20with%20House%20away%20amid%20shutdown&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cbsnews.com%2Flive-updates%2Fgovernment-shutdown-latest-senate-votes-day-8%2F%23post-update-1e200a18\" class=\"sharebar__button sharebar__button--type-reddit lazyload\" title=\"reddit\" target=\"_blank\" data-component=\"popups\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\n                <svg viewbox=\"0 0 32 32\" class=\"sharebar__icon sharebar__icon--reddit\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n        <use xlink:href=\"#icon-social-reddit\"\/>\n      <\/svg><br \/>\n      <\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"sharebar__button-container sharebar__button-container--service  \">\n            <textarea class=\"sharebar__textarea\">https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/live-updates\/government-shutdown-latest-senate-votes-day-8\/#post-update-1e200a18<\/textarea><\/p>\n<p>            <a href=\"#\" class=\"sharebar__button sharebar__button--type-link lazyload\" data-link-share-options=\"{\" shareurl=\"\" data-component=\"[\" link-share=\"\" title=\"link\"><br \/>\n                  <svg viewbox=\"0 0 32 32\" class=\"sharebar__icon sharebar__icon--link\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n        <use xlink:href=\"#icon-social-link\"\/>\n      <\/svg><br \/>\n      <\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- ItShrt World News -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"1882483372\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/live-updates\/government-shutdown-latest-senate-votes-day-8\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 0m ago Hegseth blasts Schumer over military paychecks Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth railed against Senate Minority Leader Schumer in<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":50565,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-50564","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-us"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Government shutdown live updates as Senate prepares to vote again - World News<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The government shutdown stretched into Day 8 on Wednesday with more Senate votes planned.
