TL;DR Summary
The White House and Congress have reached an agreement to fund the Department of Homeland Security and nearly three-quarters of the federal government, but the details are still unclear. However, the legislation may not be passed in time to prevent a partial government shutdown after midnight on Saturday. The bills have not been released, and there are concerns about potential delays in the voting process. The agreement has been complicated by disagreements over immigration and border security policies, and there are ongoing negotiations about emergency funding for Ukraine.
