WSGW OnLine Poll: Government Shutdown and Wall Money
The federal government is in shutdown.
President Trump has said he will accept responsibility for the shutdown, but he also has said it’s on the Democrats, as funding for a border wall is the battleground.
President Trump does not appear willing to sign any government funding plan unless it includes $5 billion for a wall. Democrats do not appear willing to offer a single plan that includes money for a wall, but could have a split plan to fund the government, with a temporary exception to fund the Department of Homeland Security into early February which would receive about $1.3 billion toward border fencing.
