Trump spoke to media on Sunday, saying that a government shutdown is a possibility if the House of Representatives fails to pass a temporary funding bill. However, he remains optimistic that the measure will be approved.
Trump acknowledged that a shutdown could occur but said it "shouldn't have happened" and is unlikely, expressing confidence that the continuing resolution (CR) will pass. This bill would extend government funding at current levels until the end of the 2025 fiscal year on September 30.
Republicans, who control the House, introduced a six-month stopgap spending bill on Saturday, with a vote scheduled for Tuesday. Trump has publicly endorsed the measure, urging Republican lawmakers to support it.
His backing has influenced some hardline Republicans who previously opposed similar funding bills, a critical factor given House Speaker Mike Johnson’s narrow 218-214 Republican majority.
