(BREITBART) – The U.S. Senate struck a deal to fund the government on Thursday, averting a partial government shutdown as the mid-term elections loom large.
Senate Democrats and Republicans agreed to split the bill “funding the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) off from a ‘minibus’ package of five other major funding bills,” per The Hill.
The Senate will instead move a stopgap bill known as a continuing resolution (CR) that would fund DHS at current levels until Feb. 13.
The two sides had haggled over the length of the CR, with Democrats insisting on the two-week version that won out.
Republicans had sought a six-week CR.
Top Republicans will reportedly circulate the deal among its members to see if any amendments will be necessary. The five remaining bills covering the departments of Defense, Transportation, Housing and Urban Development, Health and Human Services, Labor and Education are “full-year measures, meaning that roughly 96 percent of the government will be funded for fiscal 2026.”
President Trump celebrated the deal in Truth Social post on Thursday night.

“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),” he wrote.
“Hopefully, both Republicans and Democrats will give a very much needed Bipartisan ‘YES’ Vote,” he added.
According to the Associated Press, the Senate “could vote on the deal as soon as Thursday evening.”
“In the House, Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., told The Associated Press on Thursday that he had been ‘vehemently opposed’ to breaking up the funding package, but ‘if it is broken up, we will have to move it as quickly as possible. We can’t have the government shut down,’” the AP noted.

Lord Jesus, I pray for Your will to prevail in this latest partial shutdown. Please give the members of the House guidance and wisdom today as they vote on this. I pray for all of the people in our nation who will be affected if a true shutdown does come to pass.. Thank You Jesus.
I don’t trust the demoncrats and those RINOs who are demoncrats but ran as republican. There only loyalty is to the socialist party agenda which first is to remove God entirely from the USA. I humbly ask that God take care of this evil. May God’s will be done whatever that is.
🙏😇🙏❤️

I am sick to death of the abject fear Republicans and some moderates continue to show when confronted by atheist wickedness. Why is it the haters of God can be so bold while those who love him are so timid?
Lord, please give understanding to all those in leadership in our government so they make wise decisions, recognize the evil forces creating deceit and deception and clearly speak truth. “Thus says the Lord” is more needed today than ever before. Give us all voices to speak up.
It should be that the truly needed departments would be fully funded for full and good action for the nation and its people.
I am concerned that Democrats will use the current chaos and anger centered in Minneapolis to weaken enforcement of our immigration policies and efforts to apprehend and deport those who are here illegally, both dangerous criminals and others who are here illegally. This would be yet another act of law carelessness leading to more lawlessness.
I pray that our government will come together so that it will not have another shutdown. I pray that the government will be unified and stop trying to make one side seem better than the other. I pray that our government will learn that we are one nation under God. I pray that our government will yield to the fear of God and seek to fulfil God’s purpose and agenda. I pray that our government will pray to Almighty God to give them access to God’s wisdom and power in Jesus name, so be it.
