U.S. President Trump and Senate Democrats have reached a temporary agreement to avert a government shutdown, giving both sides more time to negotiate.

According to reports, Trump announced the agreement and urged both parties to vote in support. A Democratic aide revealed that the agreement will provide two weeks of funding for the Department of Homeland Security to allow further negotiations. Senate Democratic and Republican leaders were consulting their respective members about this White House deal on Thursday night.

A key backdrop to the negotiations is the incident in Minneapolis this month, where federal agents shot and killed two U.S. citizens, triggering widespread scrutiny of immigration enforcement actions. Democrats have proposed a series of restrictions, including requiring law enforcement officers not to wear masks, mandating the use of body cameras, and obtaining search warrants before entering residences.

The temporary agreement provides a buffer to avoid a government shutdown after Friday, but should the House fail to act in time, a short technical shutdown still may occur.

Two Weeks for Negotiations, but Brief Shutdown May Be Unavoidable

The core of this temporary funding deal is to give both sides more time to discuss potential restrictions on immigration enforcement actions.

Earlier this month, federal agents' actions in Minneapolis resulted in the deaths of two U.S. citizens, sparking nationwide protests. Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer insisted that Republicans agree to remove long-term Homeland Security funding from a sprawling spending package to ensure the government continues to operate after Friday.

Senate Republican Leader Thune previously told reporters that any breakthrough depended on negotiations between Democrats and the White House.

Although the Senate and White House have reached a consensus, the legislative process remains challenging. The House last week passed a comprehensive spending bill and left Washington, with plans to reconvene next Monday. This means any amendments to the bill will require another vote in the House.

Given that Mike Johnson is not expected to call members back early, even if the Senate passes the agreement, a brief funding lapse is still possible. However, analysts point out that such a short weekend shutdown would have minimal impact on government operations, and the market reaction is expected to be relatively mild.

Polls show public support for Trump’s administration's immigration enforcement actions is declining among voters. This trend poses risks for Republicans in the upcoming midterm elections and is prompting the Trump administration to consider adjusting its deportation policies.
