New shutdown threat looms as Democrats oppose spending bill

House Democrats are threatening to vote against the first wave of fiscal 2019 spending bills, forcing Republicans into a familiar fight with themselves over government funding that could leave them headed for another government shutdown threat in September.

Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., is urging Democrats to vote against an upcoming “mini-bus” package that pulls together a few spending bills into one bill.

Without Democratic support, the measure could falter thanks to the usual opposition from staunch fiscal conservatives.
