(CNN) Some of President Donald Trump's staunchest allies in the House of Representatives introduced a continuing resolution on Wednesday as an alternative to the "bad border deal" that will prevent another government shutdown. The measure was introduced by Republican Rep. Andy Biggs of Arizona, who expressed frustration that the current legislation "ignores input from experts on our southern border." The one-week time frame would be aimed at providing "time to negotiate more effective border security," Biggs said. He added that members deserve to know if a "better deal" can be struck. According to two sources who have spoken directly with the President, Trump intends to sign the border security deal to avoid another partial government shutdown should it reach his desk after passing Congress.
