President Says He Will ‘Honor the Compromise’ to Conclude Government Shutdown
After a period of failed efforts and unsuccessful tallies, a procedural vote was approved in the US Senate with a 60-40 tally, as several Democratic and independent senators joined all Republicans to move forward a compromise deal that would finance most national offices through January.
The measure now moves to the House of Representatives, which is anticipated to decide on the proposal on Wednesday.

When inquired Monday if he backed the legislative deal to end the funding lapse, Trump said he would “honor the compromise,” calling it “very good.”
