Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) is looking to lock down the votes to pass his stopgap funding bill and avert a government shutdown by Friday’s deadline, as he works to keep the lights on in Washington during the beginning weeks of President Trump’s second term.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) explains why she won’t be voting for a government funding stopgap bill and reacts to House Speaker Mike Johnson blaming Democrats for trying to shut down the government.

Before Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) can dare Senate Democrats to reject a Republican-crafted bill to avert an end-of-week shutdown, he has to pull off a feat: keeping his fractious, razor-thin majority united behind the legislation.
