with 330 employees in albuquerque. the company conducts background check investigations for, ironically enough, the department of homeland security and other federal agencies. this company's work has come to a complete stop and this slows down d.h.s.' ability to hire qualified employees inhibiting its mission to keep our borders and nation safe. this company is losing tens of thousands of dollars a day. this you can imagine really hurts my state. and its loss in revenues translates directly to a loss in state tax revenue. the multiplier effect of the shutdown on new mexico and the nation will ripple throughout the economy. this privately-held company owned by new mexicans whose lineage in our state goes back more than 300 years is currently paying its employees even though its revenue has stopped. the owners are sacrificing to do so, but they can't continue through the months or even years the president says his shutdown could last. federal employees will not stay in their jobs without pay for months or years. they hav

it's the widespread cold, and old man winter really just thumping the entire midwest and down into albuquerque as well. slick roads, travel disruptions, blowing and drifting snow. we're looking at 6 inches to 12 inches going into wednesday just as an example. for the southeast, wet weather throughout the carolinas and the southeast right down towards new orleans. and for the northeast, colder behind it along the great lakes region. marcus, janai? >> all right, paul, thank you. >>> president trump sent out a new year's wishes, a video. this was a message and included a pitch for his border wall. earlier, he called on democrats to come back to washington to strike a deal on the government shutdown. but the democrats, they're poised to introduce their own solution. abc's kenneth moton has the details. >> reporter: both the senate and the house were briefly in session on the last day of 2018. most of congress is still out of town. no deal in sight to end the partial government shutdown. president trump on fox business -- >> a lot of people are looking to get their paycheck. and so i'm ready to go
