House Republicans are hoping to vote Tuesday on a stopgap bill aimed at funding the federal government through September 30 and preventing a shutdown after Friday.

The bill was passed just hours before a midnight deadline to avoid a lapse in funding, which would have shut down the government.

WASHINGTON (TNND) — The Senate has passed a six-month spending bill Friday evening, hours before a potential government shutdown. This comes after fierce Democratic opposition to the bill. The final vote was 54-46. Democrats were frustrated that Republicans went ahead with the funding bill with little input from them.
