"Senate Narrowly Passes Stopgap Bill to Avert Government Shutdown"
TL;DR Summary
The Senate has approved a temporary spending measure in a 77-13 vote to prevent a partial government shutdown, pushing the funding deadlines for some government departments to March 8 and all remaining agencies to March 22. President Biden is expected to sign the bill, and Majority Leader Chuck Schumer announced that the Senate will take up votes on six appropriations bills next week. This measure comes after negotiators reached an agreement on full-year appropriations bills for several departments, with the remaining funding bills needing to be finalized and voted on before March 22.
