Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Corva Coleman. Congress has a few days left to fund the Department of Homeland Security, but Republicans and Democrats have stopped negotiating. NPR's Luke Garrett reports the issue of immigration enforcement is taking center stage on Capitol Hill.

The government may be heading toward another partial shutdown. Top Democrats sent their DHS demands to the White House last week, but say they've received no response. Here's House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. The ball is in the court right now of the Republicans.
