Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer confirmed Monday that bipartisan discussions aimed at preventing a government shutdown this month are “on the right track.”

Speaking from the Senate floor, Schumer noted that progress to avoid a government shutdown is being made on a bill that could garner bipartisan support and pass both the House and Senate, but he warned against “divisive” provisions, according to The Hill. Schumer said he was satisfied with the current direction of the talks. He said he was grateful to the members from both chambers.

“We need to keep divisive and unnecessary provisions out of any government funding extension, or else it will get harder to pass a [continuing resolution] in time,” he said. “For now, I’m pleased negotiations are on the right track, and I thank the appropriators in both chambers for their good work.”

After the presidential election, lawmakers from both parties had aimed to negotiate a comprehensive deal for the full-year government funding of fiscal 2025, The Hill reported. However, conservatives in both chambers are increasing pressure for a temporary measure into next year.

Some Republicans said they are optimistic about extending funding until March, although defense advocates are worried about the implications of a funding freeze on the Pentagon, the outlet said. Legislators from states severely impacted by hurricanes Helene and Milton are pushing for swift emergency relief as they argue that the upcoming funding bill should include disaster relief funds, as officials warn of depleting resources.

Republicans in the House have been pressing for policy wins, particularly on hot-button issues such as abortion and voter registration requirements, according to Politico. These demands are creating significant friction with Senate Democrats, who, along with President Joe Biden, are advocating for a more straightforward funding extension.

Several Republican representatives openly criticized House Speaker Mike Johnson’s previous funding proposal and called it a continuation of unsustainable spending levels. After Johnson’s initial proposal was rejected due to fiscal concerns, he submitted a new continuing resolution in September, which has also met with disappointment from fiscal conservatives in his party.
