Budget Brief 18-02
January 19, 2018
Summary 

The federal government is just hours away from a potential shutdown. Should that occur, state officials will have questions about their ability to operate federal grant programs in the absence of a current appropriation. The answers to those questions vary by program.

FFIS Budget Brief 17-21 provides answers to many such general questions, and the FFIS website includes additional materials from federal sources. This brief provides targeted summary information about some of the largest programs.
