shutdown. the stalemate only in place until the 15th while a group of lawmakers try to hash out a long-term deal. joining us now from new york, congressman tom breed. great to be with you, congressman. >> great to see you, kate. >> thank you. they put the chance of negotiating this at being able to reach a deal at less than 50-50. is that where you put it right now? >> due to congress not being able to agree on this issue, that's my assessment. take yes for an answer. there is a deal to be struck here, kate. border security plus relief to about a million and a half children. that is a national deal that could be struck to take care of both of these issues. >> the president has said, though, another shutdown is definitely a possibility if they don't get to a deal. would you support another government shutdown less than three weeks from now?
