US government shutdown looms as Democrats reject DHS funding over ICE issues
A US government shutdown is increasingly likely as Democratic Senators refuse to approve the DHS funding bill, following the fatal shooting of a second US citizen by federal agents in Minneapolis. Key Democrats, including Chuck Schumer, Catherine Cortez Masto, and Patty Murray, demand changes to ICE operations before backing the bill. Without a resolution, the funding package could miss the January 31st deadline.
