Government Shutdown Update: Here’s When It Could End, According To House Leaders

House Speaker Mike Johnson expects to fund most agencies by Tuesday with ongoing negotiations on Department of Homeland Security reforms after Minneapolis immigration-related deaths.

  • On Sunday, U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson said he expects to end a partial government shutdown by Tuesday and then spend two weeks debating Immigration and Customs Enforcement reforms.
  • A failed deal that split DHS funding set the stage for the shutdown as Democratic anger over killings during federal immigration sweeps in Minneapolis stalled talks, and the government entered a shutdown Saturday after missing a funding deadline.
  • To buy time, the House will fund 11 of 12 agencies by Tuesday, explicitly carving out DHS, with a razor-thin GOP majority that could scuttle the plan if hardliners defect.
  • So far the impact appears minimal, but shutdowns can freeze funding, halt services and force federal workers onto unpaid leave, and Johnson warned the Coast Guard, TSA and FEMA face risks.
  • As lawmakers return Monday, the U.S. House is due to act on the emergency in snowbound Washington while House Democratic leader Hakim Jeffries said Sunday he will discuss DHS reforms with Republican leaders amid politically fraught talks.
