Second White House meeting scheduled as shutdown drags toward week three
By Jordan Fabian - 01/02/19 04:46 PM EST

A partial government shutdown showed no signs of ending Wednesday as congressional leaders left what appeared to be an unproductive meeting with President Trump.

Before and after the meeting, there was little if any sign of compromise.

Trump invited congressional leaders to return to the White House for another meeting on Friday, the day after Democrats take over the House majority.

“We are asking the president to open up the government," House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said outside the White House following the meeting. "We are giving him a Republican path to do that."

Pelosi said she planned to move ahead with a plan to vote on a spending bill Friday without funding for a border wall, as Trump demanded.
