President Says He Will ‘Honor the Compromise’ to Conclude Funding Crisis
After weeks of failed efforts and rejected ballots, a legislative motion succeeded in the upper chamber with a 60-40 tally, as several Democratic and independent senators sided with all Republicans to advance a bipartisan agreement that would support most government departments through January.
The measure now heads to the lower chamber, which is projected to decide on the proposal on Wednesday.
The Democratic caucus has expressed outrage at the lawmakers who broke ranks, with senior Democratic senator Chuck Schumer now under pressure to step down as minority leader.

When asked Monday if he supported the legislative deal to resolve the funding lapse, the President said he would “honor the compromise,” describing it as “very good.”
