Congressional gridlock over Department of Homeland Security funding, particularly border security and immigration enforcement allocations, drives trader consensus toward a DHS shutdown extending after March 31 (66.6%). Partisan clashes persist, with House Republicans demanding spending cuts and Democrats prioritizing full funding without offsets, stalling a bipartisan continuing resolution. Recent Senate advancement of a clean CR on March 20 faced House resistance, lowering odds for resolution in March 24-27 (8.0%) and boosting March 28-31 (24.1%). The March 22 deadline looms, but signals from Speaker Johnson and Senate Majority Leader Schumer indicate extended negotiations, underscoring uncertainty in averting prolonged lapses.
