The House Rules Committee voted on Monday night to advance the Senate's funding agreement that it struck with the Trump administration last week to limit a partial government shutdown.

The House committee passed the funding agreement in an 8-4 vote along party lines, advancing it to a floor vote as early as Tuesday.

The Senate, last week, passed a package of five of the remaining six appropriations bills, as well as a short-term extension of funding for the remaining bill while Congress debates changes to the Department of Homeland Security package.

The government has been in a partial shutdown since Saturday, but House Speaker Mike Johnson said he expects to resolve the shutdown on Tuesday, according to NBC News. 

Democrats have sought concessions from the GOP on the DHS bill in the wake of the death of Alex Pretti, an anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) demonstrator whom Border Patrol agents shot in Minneapolis during a physical altercation.

The continuing resolution on DHS funding is set to last two weeks, though an agreement to pass the full-year bill could come at any time.
