Lawmakers in the U.S. Senate might vote to reopen the federal government on Sunday night, which would end the longest shutdown of the federal government in history.

The deal is reportedly three bills to fund the government through Jan. 30, a mini funding bill that reverses the reduction-in-force notices, and fund the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program through next September, a PBS reporter posted on X. 

There are 53 Republicans in the Senate, but 60 votes are required to pass a funding bill. Between eight and 10 Senate Democrats are reportedly willing to reopen the federal government, a CNN reporter posted on X.

The Senate planned a vote today to end a 40-day shutdown, Townhall reported earlier today. 

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries posted a statement opposing the deal. 

President Donald Trump said that the end of the shutdown might be close.

Roughly 13,000 air traffic controllers have missed two paychecks because of the federal shutdown that started on Oct. 1. Roughly 50,000 Transportation Security Administration employees have also worked without pay as families nationwide prepare to fly to visit family for Thanksgiving and Christmas. 

Editor’s Note: The Schumer Shutdown is here. Rather than put the American people first, Chuck Schumer and the radical Democrats forced a government shutdown for healthcare for illegals. They own this.
