The U.S. House of Representatives passed a temporary government funding bill, providing funds for most government agencies until January 30 of next year.
On November 13, the U.S. House voted to approve a "Government Reopening Bill," which will take effect once signed by Trump. This temporary spending plan will provide operational funding for most federal government agencies until January 30, 2026, but there may still be a risk of a shutdown at that time.
However, funding for the food stamp program has been extended until September 30 of next year and will not be affected by the next potential shutdown; funding for the Department of Agriculture, the Department of Veterans Affairs, the FDA, military construction projects, and Congress itself has also been approved until this date.
During the bill's advancement, progressive groups expressed dissatisfaction with centrist Democrats—who abandoned healthcare-related demands in this round of negotiations over the government shutdown. Organizations like MoveOn even called for Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer to resign, but there was no response from party members. According to Schumer's allies, he personally opposed this temporary bill, advocating to continue fighting for their demands. #美众议院通过FIT21法案
