U.S. government partially shuts down; House vote could reopen it by Monday

•⁠ ⁠The government partially shut down, hours after the Senate passed a package of funding bills.

•⁠ ⁠House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., said he hopes his chamber will pass the Senate-passed funding deal on Monday, in light of President Donald Trump’s support for it.

•⁠ ⁠The package includes five bills, plus a two-week stopgap measure that gives lawmakers more time to work out disputes over funding for the Department of Homeland Security.
