A government shutdown was averted at the eleventh hour. Congress approved a hastily revised short-term government funding bill after a previous attempt failed to pass the House this week.

The new bill funds federal operations and disaster aid, but does not address Trump’s demands to raise or abolish the debt ceiling. President Biden is expected to sign the bill today.
