The Senate on Tuesday rejected a bill to reopen the federal government for the 14th time, despite signs of progress toward a potential deal to end the ongoing shutdown.
Senators voted 54-44 against the House-passed “clean” continuing resolution, which aimed to fund the government through November 21. The bill required 60 votes to pass but fell short of the necessary threshold.
As the shutdown persists, lawmakers continue efforts to negotiate a resolution, balancing differing priorities in hopes of reaching a compromise soon.
