Trump tells GOP he won't sign stopgap, threatening shutdown | TheHill: Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) said Thursday that President Trump will not sign a stopgap spending bill over concerns about border security, a decision that significantly increases the risk of a government shutdown.
“The president informed us that he will not sign the bill,” Ryan told reporters at the White House after meeting with Trump.
Trump’s choice effectively torpedoes a spending bill that would fund the government through Feb. 8, but does not provide additional funding for his long-desired wall along the U.S.-Mexico border.
