US EditionTrump signs funding bill into law, ending record-long government shutdown
- On Wednesday, U.S. Congress moved to end the longest government shutdown, 43 days, as the House of Representatives prepared to rubber-stamp a Senate funding package to reopen federal agencies in Washington.

- Republicans claim a short-term political win despite no clear ultimate victor, with Democrats facing backlash from their base and White House insiders doubting long-term damage to Trump.
- Patrick Sebastian warns Republicans must `work on a soft landing for health care` as a group of eight moderate Senate Democrats cut a deal offering a Senate vote on subsidies.
