Government Budget Negotiation to Avoid Shutdown

Republicans are gearing up for a budget negotiation to avoid a government shutdown with a bill that would keep federal agencies funded until September 30. President Trump is urging Republicans to support the bill, while some Republicans are already signaling they would not vote for it. The bill includes provisions for defense and non-defense spending, as well as additional funding for veterans' healthcare and Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Democrats are troubled by the bill, particularly its impact on programs like Social Security and Medicaid.
