Trump spending deal fails as shutdown on cards to begin Saturday

The Republican-led House of Representatives rejected Donald Trump's new plan on Thursday to fund federal operations and avert a government shutdown.

A total of 38 Republican lawmakers voted against the package, even though they were under pressure to approve the new plan.

The package would increase spending and clear the way for a plan that would add trillions more to the federal government's $36 trillion (€34.74 trillion) in debt. 

Congress now has until Friday night to come up with another plan that both Republicans and Democrats agree on. 

A shutdown is slated to begin at 12:01 a.m. Saturday.
