President Donald Trump is imploring the House to end the partial government shutdown. But neither Republicans nor Democrats appear ready to quickly approve the federal funding package he brokered with the Senate. They want to first debate their own demands over immigration enforcement operations. That means tough days ahead for Speaker Mike Johnson. A partial shutdown started over the weekend when funding lapsed for several agencies. Pentagon, Homeland Security and others are without funds, but much of their operations are deemed essential and they continue operating. Some workers may go without pay.
