Senate passes $1.2 trillion funding package in early morning vote
In the early hours of Saturday, the Senate approved a $1.2 trillion package of spending bills, marking a significant step nearly six months into the budget year and effectively postponing any risk of a government shutdown until the fall.
The bill now awaits President Joe Biden’s signature to become law.
The vote tally stood at 74-24. This decision came after funding for various agencies had expired at midnight.
However, shortly after the deadline, the White House issued a notice indicating that the Office of Management and Budget had halted shutdown preparations.
There was a high level of confidence that Congress would pass the legislation and that the president would sign it on Saturday, the Associated Press reported.
