US President Donald Trump met with leaders of both chambers of Congress at the White House to negotiate ways to avert a government shutdown. Chuck Schumer, the Democratic leader in the Senate, said there were huge differences between them and that Mr. Trump had listened to their objections. Mr. Schumer said it was up to Republicans to decide whether to shut down the government. Hakeem Jeffries, the Democratic leader in the House of Representatives, said it was a frank discussion and that Democrats would not support a Republican bill that would harm health care. Johnson, the speaker of the House of Representatives, said he wanted more time for negotiations. Vance, the vice-president, said the talks with leaders of both chambers were "frank" and that disagreements should not lead to a shutdown of the federal government.
