Shutdown Averted Before Elections | Detroit News

Description

The House narrowly passed a last-minute spending bill to avoid a government shutdown before the November midterms, extending funding until December 4th — a move Republicans and a few Democrats backed to sidestep election-season chaos. While Senate approval is still pending, GOP leaders hope to use the bill as a foundation for short-term funding, potentially allowing them to pass measures with just a simple majority. But some Democrats are furious, calling it a power grab that gives the administration too much control over border agencies and risks mass deportations — accusing Republicans of ducking responsibility.
