Senate passes six month spending bill to avert shutdown
The Senate approved a six month continuing resolution by 54 to 46, sending it to President Trump to sign. Democrats criticized limited input and increased executive discretion, while some backed avoiding a shutdown and preserving government functions. The measure funds agencies through September, trims non defense spending by about 13 billion, lifts defense by about 6 billion, and represents a third short term extension for the fiscal year. The House previously passed it and adjourned, leaving lawmakers to choose passage or risk a lapse in funding.
