WASHINGTON — Lawmakers reached a deal on Sunday to end the longest-ever government shutdown, according to two sources familiar with the matter.

A group of Senate Democrats struck an agreement with congressional Republicans and the White House. At least eight Democrats are in favor of the negotiated deal, which includes reversals of federal layoffs, a promised vote in the future on Obamacare subsidies, and fully reopening the government through Jan. 30.
