The Latest: House rejects Dems' bill to reopen government
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Latest on President Donald Trump and the partial government shutdown (all times local):3:25 p.m.
The House has rejected a Democratic-sponsored bill to reopen the federal government though Feb. 1.
The bill is one of two that Democrats proposed this week to end the partial government shutdown that began Dec. 22. The second bill would reopen federal agencies through Feb. 28.
The House voted 237-187 in favor of the bill, but the measure failed because it did not have the required two-thirds support.
House Appropriations Chairwoman Nita Lowey says the shutdown is creating pain and misery for families, businesses and communities across the U.S.
