- •US President Donald Trump pressed the House to quickly pass a spending bill to end the three-day government shutdown.
- •Trump urged Congress to send the bill to his desk "WITHOUT DELAY" via a Truth Social post, emphasizing no changes.
- •The shutdown began due to collapsed negotiations and Democratic anger over the killing of two protesters in Minneapolis by federal immigration agents, stalling DHS funding talks.
- •The Senate approved a package to fund most federal agencies and a two-week stopgap for DHS, but conservative Republicans criticize it.
