Government shutdown will extend into next week as Senate adjourns without breaking stalemate
The Senate will not hold any further votes on the dueling Democratic and Republican funding bills this week. The continued impasse in the Senate extends the shutdown until at least next week, when the upper chamber is expected to return on Tuesday at 3 p.m.
The Senate was originally scheduled to be on break next week. It's unclear if House Republican leaders will bring back members next week.
The lower chamber has not been in session since Sept. 19, when it passed the Republican funding measure. House Speaker Mike Johnson, a Louisiana Republican, has continued to extend their break, arguing that the lower chamber's work is done and the House will return once the bill has cleared the Senate.
