President Trump expressed optimism Thursday that a deal would be reached to avert a partial government shutdown after Democrats demanded changes to immigration enforcement operations be included in the funding package following the second killing of an American citizen by federal agents in Minneapolis this month.
"Hopefully, we won't have a shutdown," he said at a Cabinet meeting. "We're working on that right now. I think we're getting close. The Democrats, I don't believe, want to see it either. So, we'll work in a very bipartisan way, I believe, not to have a shutdown. We won't want a shutdown."
Shortly after his remarks, the Senate blocked a six-bill appropriations package covering most federal spending, as negotiations continue between senators and the White House.
Lawmakers are now considering stripping the bill funding the Homeland Security Department from the package and reworking it separately, while moving ahead with the other five bipartisan appropriations bills alongside a short-term funding extension for DHS.
Any changes to the package would require another House vote. The House is not scheduled to return until Monday, after the midnight Friday funding deadline.
