suzanne malveaux in washington. suzanne, good morning. this passed 71-28 in the senate despite rand paul's best objections and long they were. what is the likelihood of it sailing through the house? >> reporter: we don't think it will sail through the house. there is more work to be done. we expect it will pass. it will be more mysogny. you saw nancy pelosi urging people to think about the daca and dreamers and how they are related to the debate and how it will unfold is a series of procedural matters and a debate on the deal. the vote expected in the hour or the next hour. the 5:00 hour. all of this last-minute drama while the government is shutdown. again for the second time in three weeks.

what happened overnight is the senate passed the two-year bipartisan deal 71-28. this was after the midnight deadline. this was because kentucky senator rand paul, republican, took to the senate floor many times refusing to agree up the time to vote on the bill which required you nunanimous consent all senators. he forced the voting to be delayed and he protested about the huge amount of government spending that is in the bill and the hypocrasy his party is drawing. >> this is something that is important. we waited all week long to put it at the very end of the week and expire as people get tired and everybody says you don't want to shutdown government do you? i don't. my intention is never to shutdown the government. my intention is also not to keep it open and borrowing $1 million a minute.

my intention is not to vote for bills to keep it open, but bills to spend so much money they endanger our security. >> reporter: getting the budget bill through the house is not a done deal. speaker paul ryan is confident they are in a good place to get to the finish line. the fiscal hawks and freedom caucus are against it. he will need some democrats to break-away. you have house democrats frankly who are livid there is no commitment to the dreamers or daca deal in the spending bill. their caucus led by pelosi meeting behind closed doors holding cards close to the vest. pelosi talked about the letter she sent to speaker ryan telling him they do want a firmer commitment to daca and bring legislation to the house floor. we saw overnight senator mitch mcconnell announcing he would keep to his word that he will be opening debate on the immigration issue on the senate
