This is "Arkies in the Beltway" for the week of Oct. 5, 2025! I'm Alex Thomas, Washington Correspondent for the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, with your weekly look at national politics and the Arkansans influencing the discussions.
It appears the government shutdown will enter a second week as the U.S. Senate remains at a stalemate.
Republicans have pushed a continuing resolution to extend government funding through Nov. 21. Democrats, however, have put forward an alternative proposal addressing multiple policy priorities, including premium tax credits for health insurance purchased through the Affordable Care Act marketplace.
Members of Arkansas' congressional delegation have called on their Democratic colleagues to support the short-term funding measure, concerned about how a lengthy government shutdown could impact public employees and services.
STORY: Arkansas’ congressmen continue work, meetings during government shutdown
