. The last US government shutdown was between Dec 2018 and Jan 2019.

For the purposes of this question, a "government shutdown" must involve furloughing of workers. For example, the 

 on 9 Feb 2018 lasted only a few hours and did not furlough government workers, and so would not count.

This question resolves YES if a government shutdown involving furloughed workers happens, and otherwise resolves NO when the year ends (midnight EST).
