US EditionJohnson says no quick House vote to end partial shutdown and blames Democrats for their ICE demands
House Speaker Mike Johnson aims for a vote by Tuesday to fund agencies excluding DHS, enabling two weeks of negotiations on ICE reforms after Minneapolis shootings.
- On Sunday, House Speaker Mike Johnson said it will be a few days before a government funding package comes up for a vote, ensuring the partial federal shutdown extends into the week with hopes to end by Tuesday.
- Democrats demand ICE reforms, including unmasking agents and ending roving patrols, after two Minneapolis shootings by federal agents this month.
- The Senate approved a five-bill funding package and a 71-29 vote on a two-week DHS continuing resolution, which now goes to the House for another vote.
- Essential federal workers face pay disruptions as funding lapsed Saturday for the Department of Homeland Security, Department of Transportation, and others; SNAP benefits continue, but FEMA's $7 billion to $8 billion disaster fund may face pressure.
- Johnson publicly blamed Democrats, saying, `The Democrats play games with this, and I think it's very unfortunate because what they're doing is they're jeopardizing services to the American people`, and he relies on procedural votes starting Monday to push the package.
