The federal government quietly went into a partial shutdown early Saturday morning after Congress failed to finalize a budget agreement by January 30th. House Democrats are expected to rebel against a deal reached between Senate Democrats and the White House. A plan by House Republicans to fast-track the spending package on Monday likely won’t be successful. According to Axios, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) informed House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) that he should not rely on Democratic votes to end the shutdown. House opposition mounts to spending package needed to end partial shutdownhttps://t.co/ODoIvTpseP pic.twitter.com/py0a0pSdjK — The Washington Times (@WashTimes) February 2, 2026 Axios explained further: Johnson may instead be forced to try and get virtually all of his members to vote for the government funding legislation — a difficult task as some GOP lawmakers are already raising stringent objections. Jeffries informed Johnson on a Saturday call that the Democratic votes wouldn’t be there to pass the bill in a bipartisan manner, Republican and Democratic leadership sources told Axios. Democrats are hesitant to vote for the package because it contains a two-week stopgap funding bill for the Department of Homeland Security that lacks reform measures for ICE or Customs and Border Protection. Senate Democrats were split almost evenly on the measure in a Friday night vote, with the 23 Democrats who voted for it facing swift backlash from progressive groups who accused them of essentially voting to fund ICE. “I am working hard with Congress to ensure that we are able to fully fund the Government, without delay. Republicans and Democrats in Congress have come together to get the vast majority of the Government funded until September, while at the same time providing an extension to the Department of Homeland Security (including the very important Coast Guard, which we are expanding and rebuilding like never before),” Trump said last week. “Hopefully, both Republicans and Democrats will give a very much needed Bipartisan ‘YES’ Vote,” he added. JUST IN: Senate Democrats, White House Reach Agreement Amid Looming Government Shutdown Fox News has more: Some areas of the government have already been funded, but spending for the departments of War, Transportation (DOT), Health and Human Services (HHS), and Homeland Security (DHS), among others, is now in question. House Democrats do not feel bound by the deal their counterparts in the Senate struck with President Donald Trump's White House, the sources told Fox News Digital. The sources said House Democrats are also frustrated that Schumer put them in a position where they were expected to take the deal on. "Democrat division creates another government shutdown," one House Republican told Fox News Digital. But it could be difficult for House GOP leaders to corral all the votes needed as well. Multiple Republicans have already expressed concerns about the compromise requiring them to negotiate with Democrats on reining in Trump's immigration crackdown, while others like Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., are pushing their own priorities to be included in exchange for their support. Luna told Fox News Digital that she would not support the legislation if it did not include an unrelated measure that would require proof of citizenship in the voter registration process, a separate but widely accepted GOP bill.
