WASHINGTON, Jan 5 — White House budget director Shalanda Young said today she is not optimistic about reaching a deal to avoid a partial government shutdown later this month.

“I wouldn’t say pessimistic but I’m not optimistic,” Young said at a breakfast meeting with reporters, citing a trip by House Republicans this week to the US-Mexico border and comments by some lawmakers advocating for a partial shutdown.

Congress returns to Washington next week to tackle January 19 and February 2 deadlines for settling government spending through September, amid Republican demands to reduce fiscal 2024 discretionary spending below caps agreed in June.
