A chance for a partial shutdown grows larger by the day as Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer threatens that Democrats will vote against a federal spending bill set to get a vote this week. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt previously said that all the bills wrapped into the massive spending package are the product of bipartisan negotiations between the House and Senate. LiveNOW’s Andy Mac is speaking with Cami Mondeaux, a congressional correspondent for Deseret News, who covers both the House and Senate.
“At this point, the White House supports the bipartisan work that was done to advance the bipartisan appropriations package, and we want to see that passed,” Press Secretary Leavitt said. “Policy discussions on immigration in Minnesota are happening. Look, the president is leading those discussions, as evidenced by his correspondence with Governor Walz this morning. But that should not be at the expense of government funding for the American people.”
