美国国会参议院的两党议员已经达成共识，将恢复政府运作，避免违约拖欠债务。目前美国政府部分关闭已经进入第三周，人们担心美国可能无法偿还债务。
 
国会参众两院的议员星期二预计将会面讨论如何达成协议。这项协议可能结束政府关闭，提高债务上限。
 
在周一的协商之后，民主党籍的参议院多数党领袖里德和参院的共和党领袖麦康奈尔都对可能达成协议表示乐观。
 
里德星期一晚间对记者说，双方在签署协议方面取得了“巨大的进展“。他告诫说，国会“还没有完全达成共识，“但是他预测星期二可能是”美好的一天“。
 
麦康奈尔说，他对此也感到乐观。
 
任何协议都必须在国会参众两院获得通过，然后得到总统的签署。
 
A bipartisan accord to reopen the U.S. government and avoid a debt default is taking shape in the Senate, as potential U.S. insolvency looms and the federal shutdown enters a third week.

House and Senate Republicans are expected to meet Tuesday to discuss a potential deal that could end the government shutdown and raise the debt ceiling.

After a day of talks Monday, both Democratic Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and Republican Senate Leader Mitch McConnell expressed optimism that a deal could be reached.

Reid told reporters late Monday that there was "tremendous progress" toward a deal. He cautioned that Congress is "not there yet," but predicted Tuesday could be a "bright day."

McConnell said he shares Reid's optimism.

Any deal would have to be approved by both the House and the Senate before being signed by the president.
