No signs of talks as closure begins the second week

While Trump canceled his plans to go to Florida for a Washington break, congressional leaders scattered across the country, pointing out the lack of action in Washington, DC

Even if the White House tried to present the election of the President as one of the reasons why there is no agreement to reopen the government, the reality is that Pelosi has blocked the competition after have reached an agreement with a group of Democrats opposed to his leadership. The agreement would end his second presidency within a maximum of four years.

Pelosi was spotted in Hawaii this week, which the right-wing media sought to use against her, contrasting her vacations with Trump's time away from her Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida.

Pelosi spokesman Drew Hammill said Pelosi would return to his hometown of San Francisco on Saturday and work in the Capitol on Monday and Tuesday.

"The president-elect, Pelosi, was in constant contact with her staff, the Democratic leaders of the House and [Senate Minority Leader Charles] Schumer [D-N.Y.] to discuss efforts to reopen the government," Hammill said. "The last time Pelosi was contacted directly from the White House, it was Tuesday, December 11, when President Trump phoned him after the White House meeting this morning. Pelosi continues to urge the Republicans in charge of the House, Senate and White House to allow a vote to reopen the government. Otherwise, President Pelosi will do it on January 3rd. "

Pelosi does not have the power to introduce a bill that would reopen the government until the Democrats resume the sitting, although Representative Jim McGovern (D-Mass.) attempted to do so during a brief session earlier this week.He was not recognized by the Republican presiding the short session of the House.

None of the other congressional leaders found in Washington either.

Schumer went to his home country with his family and his new grandson, and spent many hours on the phone with the staff, Pelosi and D & # 39; 39, other legislators, said Schumer spokesman, Justin Goodman.

"Unfortunately, Senator Schumer has still not submitted a counter-proposal to the latest offer of the White House, so we continue to wait for a 60-voice solution to protect the front and end this partial closure, "she added.

Most lawmakers have moved away from Washington for most of the partial closure of the government, which began Dec. 22 after a brawl around Trump's request for $ 5 billion in funding for the construction of a wall on the Mexican border.

The Senate approved a vote-in-law bill that would have kept the government open until February 8. The action taken by the Senate did not include money for the Trump Wall.

After the Senate action, House Republicans rallied through a bill that also funded the government until February 8, but which included 5.7 billions of dollars for the Trump Wall and Border Security. This bill died when he arrived in the Senate, where he missed the 60 votes needed.

Legislators stayed or came back to Washington during the holidays for significant votes in the past. Senators were in town on Christmas Eve 2009 when the Democratic Senate passed ObamaCare. The House also put an end to a tax trial in 2013 when it passed a law on New Year's Day aimed at avoiding major income tax increases for most of the people. Americans.
