President Barack Obama told reporters that he's "not yet prepared to
express wild optimism, but I think we are further along today than we
were yesterday." Reid and Boehner released a joint statement: "We have
narrowed the issues, however, we have not yet reached an agreement. We
will continue to work through the night to attempt to resolve our
remaining differences.” Note:
Federal Government will shut down at midnight Friday without a budget
agreement. Also in News: Opponents of SB 5 fill Kasich’s email inbox;
