The three-day shutdown ended on Monday after Congress agreed on a short-term measure to fund the federal government until February 8.

Senate Democrats secured a commitment from the Republican majority to consider legislation on the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, which President Trump plans to end this spring, within the next three weeks. Lawmakers still need to agree on discretionary spending caps, and pass a full-year appropriations bill that funds government programs, including Perkins, at the new levels.
