Update on Partial Federal Government Shutdown

Yesterday afternoon, the federal government finalized five of the six remaining fiscal year (FY) 2026 budget bills, and passed a two-week continuing resolution for the sixth, which funds the Department of Homeland Security. As a result, the partial federal government shutdown has ended.

As always, we would like to express our deep appreciation for your patience and resilience as we navigate this and other challenges that impact our ability to deliver on our mission. Together, we will continue to lead the way as one Triton community.
