据知情人士透露，在明尼阿波利斯一名联邦官员又一次致命枪击事件发生后，参议院民主党人和共和党人正在权衡如何推进国土安全部及其他联邦机构的资金拨款工作。
这些方案包括可能让众议院在本周末返回华盛顿，批准一揽子修改后的法案，以避免部分政府停摆——如果情况发展到这一步的话。众议院上周离开华盛顿时，预计参议院本周会通过这些法案。然而，本周末边境巡逻队特工开枪打死了ICU护士亚历克斯·普雷蒂（Alex Pretti），这一事件显著改变了国会山的立场。
助手们强调，在过去72小时内，局势发生了根本性转变。周五时，没有人预料到政府会停摆。但到周六晚上，很明显几乎无法避免停摆。
高级助手表示，白宫和共和党参议员已开始与民主党人初步接触，寻求在本周末前避免主要联邦机构停摆的办法，但目前尚无迹象表明1月30日的最后期限前能够避免停摆危机。
民主党人要求对美国移民和海关执法局（ICE）的运作方式进行重大改革，作为投票支持为国防部、国土安全部和卫生与公众服务部等主要联邦机构提供资金的一揽子方案的条件。
“共和党人和白宫已经接触，但尚未提出任何切实可行的解决方案，”一位参议院民主党领导层助手表示。
有几种潜在方案可以避免停摆，包括剥离国土安全部的资金并单独推进其他法案。但这需要所有100名参议员在周二返回国会山后达成一致——这取决于参议院民主党人和白宫之间达成协议，而白宫已表示反对在一揽子法案中拆分法案。
缅因州共和党参议员苏珊·柯林斯（Susan Collins）是参议院最高拨款负责人，她表示，从一揽子法案中移除国土安全部法案“肯定不是[她的]首选”。
“我认为可能有办法增加一些进一步的改革或程序保护措施，但这些讨论仍在进行中，”她周一在国会向记者表示，并补充说这些讨论将涉及参议院多数党领袖约翰·图恩（John Thune）。
尽管如此，共和党人表示，他们正在探讨所有与民主党要求从众议院已通过的六项法案拨款方案中移除国土安全部法案相关的选项。他们表示，一个主要目标是防止占政府支出75%的机构停摆。
就民主党而言，他们正试图围绕一组单一要求凝聚共识，但一位知情人士表示，关于民主党将寻求哪些改革（涉及国土安全部）的讨论仍在进行中。民主党领导人仍在征求其成员的建议和想法。
然而，两党在修改美国移民和海关执法局方面的快速妥协将很困难。许多共和党人可能会反对民主党要求的ICE改革类型。
目前一切尚未最终确定，下一步讨论仍处于初步阶段。

Lawmakers exploring options for DHS bill in critical week for government funding talks
2026-01-26T15:51:18.020Z / CNN
Senate Democrats and Republicans are weighing how to move forward on funding the Department of Homeland Security and other federal agencies after another deadly shooting by a federal officer in Minneapolis, according to sources familiar with the matter.
The options include potentially having the House return at the end of the week to approve a modified package of bills to avoid a partial government shutdown should it come to that. The House left Washington last week, expecting the Senate to pass the package of bills this week. Then, a Border Patrol agent shot and killed ICU nurse Alex Pretti over the weekend — significantly changing postures on Capitol Hill.
Aides emphasized that the dynamics fundamentally shifted over the last 72 hours. On Friday, no one was anticipating a government shutdown. By Saturday night, it became clear that there may be little way to avoid one.

The White House and GOP senators have begun initial outreach to Democrats to find a way out of shuttering the major federal agencies by week’s end, according to senior aides, but so far there’s no indication a shutdown crisis will be averted by the January 30 deadline.
Democrats want major changes to how US Immigration and Customs Enforcement is operating as a condition for voting on a funding package that would provide money to major federal agencies, such as the Departments of Defense, Homeland Security and Health and Human Services.
“Republicans and the White House have reached out but have not yet raised any realistic solutions,” one Senate Democratic leadership aide said.
There are several potential options to avoid a shutdown, including stripping out funding for the Department of Homeland Security and separately moving the rest of the bills. But that would require the consent of all 100 senators after they return to Capitol Hill Tuesday — and would hinge on an agreement being reached by Senate Democrats and the White House, which has said it opposes separating the bills in the package.
Maine Republican Susan Collins, the Senate’s top appropriator, said that removing the DHS bill from the broader package “certainly would not be [her] first choice.”
“I think there might be a way to add some further reforms or procedural protections, but those discussions are ongoing,” she told reporters in the Capitol Monday, adding they would involve Senate Majority Leader John Thune.
Still, Republicans say they are exploring all options as it relates to Democratic demands to strip the DHS bill out of the six-bill appropriations package already passed by the House. A top goal, they say, is to prevent a shutdown of what amounts to 75% of the government’s spending.
For their part, Democrats are trying to coalesce around a single set of demands, but a source familiar with those talks said conversations about what kinds of reforms Democrats will seek as it pertains to DHS are still ongoing. Democratic leaders are still soliciting suggestions and ideas from their members.
A quick compromise between the parties on changes to US Immigration and Customs Enforcement would be difficult, however. Many Republicans would likely oppose the types of changes to ICE that Democrats are demanding.
Nothing is at all finalized and discussions on next steps are preliminary.
