Feb. 2 (UPI) -- The House of Representatives will be back in session Monday to try to pass a spending bill that would fund the Department of Homeland Security to end a partial government shutdown.
The government has been partially shut down since Saturday, as lawmakers grapple with funding the department after two high-profile shooting deaths of protesters in Minneapolis: Renee Good and Alex Pretti.
Senate Republicans struck a deal with President Donald Trump to pass a two-week funding bill for DHS, but House Democrats have said they won't support it.
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., told Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, R-La., that Democrats won't support the bill without restrictions on immigration enforcement, The Washington Post reported.
