Well folks, it looks like the government shutdown is finally coming to an end.
As I write this, the Senate is taking a procedural vote for a spending measure to re-open the government.
And, it looks like a deal has been reached, with enough Democrats already having voted to allow the bill to move forward.
Here are the details:
MAJOR BREAKING: A deal has been reached to END the Schumer Shutdown, with at least EIGHT Democrat Senators breaking from their party![]()
Democrats will receive ZERO dollars for illegals nor Obamacare subsidies

Most importantly, the spending measure does not include any extensions for Obamacare subsidies or healthcare for illegal aliens.MAJOR BREAKING: A deal has been reached to END the Schumer Shutdown, with at least EIGHT Democrat Senators breaking from their party![]()
Democrats will receive ZERO dollars for illegals nor Obamacare subsidies
Reports state no real concessions were made by Republicans other than a handshake deal to hold a vote on Obamacare subsidies in December, which is VERY unlikely to pass.
This CR will fund the government through January 30, and is expected to pass tonight. The House will then have to vote to pass it as well.
But, it does give Democrats the promise of a floor vote to potentially extend Affordable Care Act next month (which isn’t likely to pass.)
Another change to the CR bill is that it would reverse all layoffs made by the Trump administration during the government shutdown and prevent any more from being made until the end of January.
So, nobody would be getting fired, as President Trump promised, as a result of the shutdown.
Politico has more details on exactly what the bill includes:UPDATE: NEW CR HAS BEEN RELEASED![]()
It seems Thune has agreed to REVERSE reduction-in-force (RIFs) by the Trump administration since Oct 1, and prohibits them through Jan 30

The Senate has not finished voting yet, but eight Democrats have already voted in favor of the procedural vote.The Sunday vote would pave the way for consideration later this week of a legislative package that would fund the Department of Agriculture and the FDA, the Department of Veterans Affairs and military construction projects, and the operations of Congress, for the full fiscal year — the product of months of bipartisan, bicameral negotiations between top appropriators.
“I also think it’s highly significant that we’ll have three year-long appropriations bills attached,” Senate Appropriations Chair Susan Collins (R-Maine) said Monday night.
All other agencies would be funded through Jan. 30, according to the text of a continuing resolution released Sunday.
As part of Democrats’ agreement to end the shutdown, Thune is promising Senate Democrats a vote in mid-December to extend Affordable Care Act subsidies that are due to expire at the end of the year without Congressional action. Democrats will also get to determine what extension bill receives that vote.
The government-opening agreement guarantees that federal employees laid off during the shutdown are re-hired and gives federal employees backpay. It also would require agencies to give written notice to Congress about the withdrawal of the so-called reduction-in-force notices issued during the funding lapse, plus provide the amount of back pay owed.
It would, as well, prevent some future firings with a blanket prohibition on reductions-in-force in any department or agency until at least the end date of the continuing resolution: Jan. 30, 2026.
One of the Democrats who voted in favor of the bill, Sen. Tim Kaine, came out to publicly support it earlier.
Watch what he had to say here:
Of course, Chuck Schumer voted ‘no.’BREAKING: It's been CONFIRMED a deal has been reached to reopen the government, a huge win for President Trump.![]()

As did Sen. Bernie Sanders, who erupted in anger on the Senate floor over the bill:America is in the midst of a Republican-made health care crisis—a crisis so severe, so urgent, and so devastating for American families that I cannot support a continuing resolution that fails to address it.

As long as nobody suddenly changes their mind, the Senate has enough votes to get the spending bill passed.BREAKING: In an incredible sight, Sen. Bernie Sanders is ERUPTING on the Senate floor due to the Democrats caving on the shutdown to Donald Trump![]()

Here’s the list of the Democrats who voted to re-open the government, so far:

Once this bill passes the Senate, which it is expected to do tonight, the House will have to pass it before the government can be re-opened.The Senate is still voting, but at this point, enough members of the Democratic caucus have voted with Republicans to allow this spending deal to reopen the government to move ahead if nobody changes their vote and if the remaining senators vote according to party lines…
Three Republican senators who had not yet voted — Mike Lee of Utah, Rick Scott of Florida, and Ron Johnson of Wisconsin — all just voted to allow the deal to move ahead.
Senator John Cornyn, Republican of Texas, has not yet voted, and his vote would be needed for consideration of this spending measure to move forward.
