Mick Mulvaney: Another Shutdown Is Still On The Table




The Washington Examiner reports:

“The president has to sign a piece of legislation in order to keep the government open. He cannot sign everything they put in front of him. There will be some things that simply we couldn’t agree to,” Acting White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney said during an interview on “Fox News Sunday.”

“So the government shutdown is technically still on the table. We do not want it to come to that, but that option is still open to the president and will remain so.”

House and Senate negotiators are working to reach a long-term spending deal after President Trump signed legislation last month ending the five-week partial government shutdown for three weeks. Funding is due to lapse again for a slew of federal agencies Friday if they are not successful.
