WASHINGTON, Jan 29 (Reuters) - A deal was reached on Thursday to advance a major package of spending bills that would avert government shutdowns of agencies beginning on Saturday, according to a Senate Democratic leadership aide.
The agreement also calls for splitting the Department of Homeland Security spending bill from the package and funding that agency for two-weeks at current levels.
