Overview
- The measure that advanced includes three full-year appropriations bills, a continuing resolution through Jan. 30, 2026, full SNAP funding through next September, and reversals of shutdown-era federal worker layoff moves.
- The proposal omits an extension of expiring Affordable Care Act premium tax credits, leaving the core health-policy dispute unresolved.
- A final Senate vote is expected tonight before the bill moves to the House, where Speaker Mike Johnson has urged members to return, and the measure would then go to President Donald Trump for signature.
- Eight senators who caucus with Democrats—Jeanne Shaheen, Maggie Hassan, Catherine Cortez Masto, Jacky Rosen, Dick Durbin, John Fetterman, Tim Kaine and Angus King—voted to advance it, and none face voters in 2026.
- Progressives and several Democratic candidates criticized the deal’s terms, as the administration separately told states it will immediately fully fund SNAP during its appeal and flight disruptions continued at 40 major airports.
