Congressional leaders announced that negotiators finalized a second package of funding bills that would put an end to the spending fight that's dragged on for months.
Washington — Negotiators in Congress have reached an agreement with the White House on funding for the Department of Homeland Security, congressional leaders announced on Tuesday, finalizing talks on a broader funding package as a shutdown deadline nears. 'An agreement has been reached for DHS appropriations, which will allow completion of the FY24 appropriations process,' House Speaker Mike Johnson said in a statement Tuesday morning.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said Tuesday morning that the appropriations committees in Congress 'are in the process of finalizing text and reports for Congress to closely review and consider ASAP.'The package is the second of two, after lawmakers approved funding that covers a smaller portion of the government earlier this month.
