US News | US Avert Shutdown With Last Minute Bill, Trump's Demand Rejected | Trump News | N18G

The Republican-controlled House passed a bill to prevent a U. S. government shutdown, with a vote of 366-34. This bill now goes to the Senate for approval and is expected to be signed by President Biden. It extends government funding until March 14, provides $100 billion for disaster relief, and $10 billion for farmers, but does not raise the debt ceiling, rejecting Trump's request. A shutdown could cost businesses $1 billion per week. House Speaker Mike Johnson calls it "America First legislation," while Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries claims a victory in stopping the shutdown. Trump supports the package but wants more influence on future spending.
