US EditionSenate passes bill to end government shutdown, sending it to House
- On Monday night, the U.S. Senate approved a spending package in a vote of 60 to 40 to fund the government through January 30, 2026, and sent it to the House of Representatives and President Donald Trump.
- Beginning on October 1, 2025, the shutdown left hundreds of thousands of federal employees furloughed or working without pay, causing nearly seven weeks of stalemate until a group of defecting senators advanced a deal.
- The funding package includes a continuing resolution and minibus that fully funds Military Construction and Veterans Affairs, Agriculture‑FDA‑Rural Development, and the Legislative Branch for fiscal year 2026 and reverses recent Reduction‑In‑Force actions.
- With the measure headed to the House, leaders say members are expected to vote this week, and President Donald Trump signaled support while Senate Republican John Thune is confident he will sign it.
- Notably, the deal leaves health‑care subsidies unresolved as the bill does not extend Affordable Care Act tax credits, and Senate Republicans have promised a mid‑December vote that Democrats say offers no guarantee.
