Senators Rick Scott, Mike Lee push House to reject Trump shutdown deal
WASHINGTON, DC (Fox News) — Senate Republicans are urging House Republicans to reject the Trump-backed shutdown deal unless it includes Homeland Security funding and election integrity legislation.
### Key Senators Demand Changes
Sens. Rick Scott, R-Fla., and Mike Lee, R-Utah, are calling for modifications to the funding package, insisting on the inclusion of the SAVE America Act and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) funding bill.
### Pushback Against Senate Package
Scott and Lee are pushing back against the Senate-passed funding package, arguing that it needs to be restructured to address their concerns.
### Stalemate Continues
Their demands could prolong the government shutdown, as House Republicans weigh their options in response to the senators’ calls for action.
### President Trump’s Truce
President Trump’s agreement with Senate Democrats to remove the DHS bill complicates the situation, as House Republicans face pressure to address the issues raised by Scott and Lee.
