Senate Democrats are divided over whether Republicans have offered enough to reach a deal to end the government shutdown this week.
Several centrist Democrats are signaling to their Republican colleagues that an agreement could be reached in the next few days.
But other Senate Democrats warn that reopening the government without a real concession from President Trump on extending the expiring health insurance premium subsidies — or at least a stronger gesture of good faith from the president — would be a big mistake.
Democrats are getting closer with Republicans on an agreement to put the regular appropriations process back on track, a strong Democratic priority, but the two sides haven’t made much progress on rising health care costs, the biggest sticking point.
