What are American’s doing now to prepare for the next USA government shutdown?

What were pain points from the previous shutdown?

The next possible USA government shutdown is Feb 1, 2026, which is just over 45 days away as I post this.

Here is a countdown clock: https://www.calculatorsoup.com/calculators/time/government-shutdown-timer.php

Last one didn't really impact me other than donating to a local business offering to feed people who lost their SNAP benefits:

If they do it again, I can donate again.
