A thirty-five-day deadlock over funding for the Mexican border wall produced an agreement to re-open the federal government for three weeks.
South Dakota Senator Mike Rounds says it is a frustrating process…

Rounds says it is difficult to find consensus…

Rounds says there is still hope Congress can find a workable solution….

The government is funded through February fifteenth. President Trump has said he would consider another shutdown, or declare an emergency if Congress doesn’t fund the border wall.
