WSJ (gated) reported Trump and Senate Democrats struck a shutdown-avoidance deal that funds most agencies long-term while giving DHS a two-week stopgap to extend immigration talks. SummaryThe Wall Street Journal reported that President Trump and Senate Democrats say they’ve reached a deal to avert a partial US government shutdown by splitting off Homeland Security funding. The plan would fast-track five full-year appropriations bills and fund DHS with a two-week continuing resolution, extending talks on immigration enforcement. The outcome reduces broad shutdown risk near-term, but keeps DHS/ICE policy disputes live into the next deadline window. In practical terms, a two-week DHS stopgap keeps Homeland Security funded while negotiators attempt to reach compromises on enforcement restrictions and oversight demands.
