The Proposal

Shutdown proposal unlikely to break logjam. The Senate's top Democrat predicts the president's proposal to break the shutdown stalemate won't pass the Senate.

Despite efforts to find a solution, the ongoing shutdown continues to create gridlock in the Senate. The proposed solution put forth by the president is facing challenges and is unlikely to be successful in breaking the current stalemate.

As the shutdown drags on, it is becoming increasingly clear that a resolution will not be easily reached. Both parties must come together to find a compromise that will end the shutdown and allow the government to resume normal operations.
