“The Senate is angling to take a key test vote as early as Sunday night on a plan that would reopen the government,” ABC News reports.
“The vote would be a big test to gauge whether enough Democrats would vote with Republicans to break the impasse even though they wouldn’t get an extension of Obamacare subsidies that expire at the end of the year, which they have been holding out for through the 40-day shutdown, the longest in U.S. history.”
Mediaite: House Democrats furious that their Senate colleagues are “caving” on shutdown.
