Reid Speaks Out About Possible Government Shutdown

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) said he can't rule out the possibility of a government shutdown. Reid's prediction comes after the Senate Republican leader, Mitch McConnell, predicted a compromise. But there are still sticking points. House Republicans are on track to pass $3.7 billion in disaster relief as part of a must-pass bill to avert a government shutdown at the end of the month. Democrats oppose it because it cuts more than a billion dollars from a program to help companies build more fuel-efficient cars.
