Moment House votes for funding measure to avoid shutdown
The House of Representatives has voted overwhelmingly to pass a funding resolution and keep the federal government open after Speaker Kevin McCarthy ended his attempts to work with far-right hardliners and instead cut a deal with Democrats on Saturday 30 September.
The final tally on the 45-day measure was 335-91 in favor, with more Democrats than Republicans ending up supporting the measure - perhaps the clearest view of Mr McCarthy’s tough spot.
The measure must be passed by the Senate before it officially halts the prospect of a shutdown.
The Senate is likely to do so without incident, with funding for Ukraine’s defence being the only sticking point.
