The Senate has failed to reach a deal to prevent the government shutdown from pushing into the workweek.

A flurry of activity on Capitol Hill had stoked hopes that a deal to end the shutdown might be reached before furloughs for hundreds of thousands of government workers kick in on Monday.

Instead, the Senate is now set to vote at noon on Monday to end debate on a measure that would fund the government through Feb. 8.

It's not clear whether the measure will garner the 60 votes needed to end debate, however, given opposition from Senate Democrats.

At the same time, there were some signs of progress, and the noon vote becomes a new deadline for ending the shutdown.

"We have had several conversations, talks will continue, but we have yet to reach an agreement on a path forward that would be acceptable for both sides," Schumer said on the Senate floor.
