USDA says SNAP benefits won't be issued on Nov. 1

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer told reporters Thursday that Republicans did not offer any proposal to vote to extend the Affordable Care Act subsidies, putting congressional leaders at odds as the government shutdown drags on, and the finger-pointing continues.

"Look, we're not negotiating in public. Plain and simple," Schumer, D-N.Y., said when asked if Thune had made the offer. "Leader Thune has not come to me with any proposal at this point."

Throughout the 16-day shutdown, Republicans have maintained they will not negotiate with Democrats while the government is shut down. But Democrats are not swayed by the promise of negotiations in the future – pushing for an agreement that addresses healthcare and also reopens the government.

"The American people are facing one of the most devastating crises they have faced in terms of cost, and we still have not heard crickets of any negotiation with Johnson or with Thune," Schumer said. "The Republicans are on the defensive. They keep changing their stories and changing their arguments, but we are on the side of the American people."

The Senate failed to advance, for the 10th time, a bill that would've funded the government through Nov. 21.

The bill failed by a vote of 51-45 on Thursday. It would have needed 60 votes to advance.

There was no movement on the vote. Sen. Rand Paul remained the only Republican to vote against it. Democratic Sens. Catherine Cortez Masto and John Fetterman, and Independent Angus King once again voted for the bill.

Majority Leader Thune switched his vote to a no at the end of the vote. This is a procedural move that allows him to more quickly call the bill up for a future vote.

This is the last vote on government funding the Senate is expected to take this week. The Senate is expected to leave Washington later Thursday, all but ensuring the government shutdown will last until at least Monday.

A federal judge in New York blocked the Trump administration on Thursday from rescinding nearly $34 million from the MTA and NYPD designated for counter terrorism, finding the withholding of the money "arbitrary, capricious and a blatant violation of the law."

FEMA cut the funds because, the agency said, New York City is a sanctuary city.

Judge Lewis Kaplan said the MTA is a state agency and not "an instrumentality of New York City."

The judge also noted the transit system has been the target of no fewer than eight attempted terror attacks since 9/11.

Kaplan's order requires the administration to reinstate the bulk of the money, which is split between the MTA and NYPD.

On Day 16 of the federal government shutdown, the Senate is expected to hold a likely doomed vote once again on reopening the government. This will be the 10th time a vote on the GOP's clean continuing resolution is held.

But in addition to the short-term government funding bill, there will also be a procedural vote on a bill that would fund the Department of Defense for the full calendar year. But like the short-term funding bill that the Senate has now rejected nine times, it will need 60 votes to advance.

With this bill, Senate Majority Leader John Thune is daring Democrats to vote against, among other things, funding pay for the troops for the full year. Thune has signaled that, if the Senate does successfully get on to this package Thursday, he'll attempt to affix funding bills for additional agencies to it using regular order on the Senate floor.
