On October 6, local time, CCTV reporters learned that Kevin Hassett, director of the National Economic Council of the White House, said,The government shutdown is cutting U.S. economic output at a rate of about $15 billion a week¡£

In an interview with the media, Hashit cited the White House internal report that the ¡°shutdown¡± would reduce U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) by about 0.1 percentage points per week. If it lasts for a month, it would lead to about 43,000 additional unemployment and reduce consumer spending by $30 billion.

The U.S. Budget Office has estimated that Trump¡¯s last government shutdown during his first term caused the U.S. economy a loss of $11 billion, of which about $3 billion was a permanent loss.
