Transcript

[A]

It continues. I'm Paul Stevens, FOX News. The Senate will reconvene later today Sunday to vote once again on a bill aimed at ending the government shutdown. Now on a record breaking day, 40.

[B]

Republicans are hoping they can make some headway into ending the shutdown. Today they're aiming for a test vote on a temporary spending plan. GOP members are optimistic they can get some Democratic support to reach the 60 vote threshold to break the filibuster. But there are still outstanding issues like the lack of a bill text. There is also nothing concrete on Obamacare subsidies. If the proposal passes, it would be a blow for progressives and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer who have hung their fight on the ACA tax credits only to be burned by members of their own party.

[A]

And that is Fox's Madeleine Rivera in D.C. meantime, air travelers paying a big price because of that shutdown. Fox's Chanley Painter.

[C]

Frustration is growing at airports across the country as thousands of flights continue to be delayed or canceled due to the government shutdown. According to FlightAware, right now more than 400 flights or delayed and over 1,000 are canceled. And yesterday saw more than 8,300 flights canceled or delayed. Airports hit hardest were Atlanta, Chicago, Newark and Charlotte. The travel nightmare stems from the FAA mandating flight cancellations. It's the result of air traffic controllers calling out sick after not getting paid. And it's only expected to get worse. The FAA is ordering a 4% reduction in flights this weekend. That will ramp up to 6% by Tuesday and 10% by Friday.

[A]

And Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy saying those flight delays and cancellations could last for weeks even after the shutdown ends. A New York City firefighter died yesterday in the line of duty. 42 year old Patrick Brady was on the roof of a burning building in Brooklyn when he suffered a medical episode and went into cardiac arrest. Brady was an 11 year veteran of the FDNY. America is listening to FOX News.
