Senate plans vote on bill to keep government open through Feb. 8

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said Wednesday he's introducing a bill to keep the government open through Feb. 8. Without a stopgap budget, some operations would shut down after Friday. President Donald Trump and congressional Democrats have been sparring over border security and other funding and Trump tweeted in the morning "one way or the other" he will "win" on the border wall.
