The election of 1994 ended with the very end and the shut down of the federal government,since there was also a recession going on during this time, america was still recovering from, there was also a big deal made about the Fiscal year 1994 budget, which made Bill Clinton look bad as a president, this made a huge gain in the republican party, which hadn't been seen since 1954, overall this ushered a new era in government. hope this was helpful and have a great day!
