A faction of right-wing House Republicans, after a visit to the U.S.-Mexico border, are threatening to shut down the government on January 19 unless President Biden and Democrats agree to enact stricter border laws. This stance has caused concern among congressional leaders and the White House, as it complicates the already challenging task of reaching a government funding deal. While GOP leaders prefer to address immigration and border policy alongside aid for Ukraine, the far-right's demands have not been endorsed by Speaker Mike Johnson or other Republican leaders. Democrats strongly oppose the shutdown strategy, emphasizing the harm it would cause, including forcing border personnel to work without pay. Negotiations continue, with a looming deadline and the potential for a combined national security package and spending bill to be considered.

House Republicans regrouped after two failed votes and voted to open debate on a package of spending bills in an attempt to prevent a government shutdown. Speaker Kevin McCarthy aims to rally his party behind four partisan appropriations bills to strengthen their negotiating position with Democrats and the White House. The bills would fund Defense, Homeland Security, Agriculture, State Department, and foreign operations, while adhering to House conservatives' demands for budget cuts. McCarthy plans to bring a short-term funding bill to the floor this week, despite opposition from some conservatives. The Senate introduced its own funding bill, including Ukraine aid that House Republicans oppose, leading McCarthy to criticize the Senate's prioritization of Ukraine over Americans.
