Overview
- CNN reports a bipartisan Senate agreement to fund federal operations until January 30, 2026 to end the shutdown.
- The plan moves an Obamacare vote to December rather than linking it to the short-term funding measure.
- The reported framework includes rehiring federal employees dismissed during the shutdown.
- Furloughed workers would receive retroactive pay, and the Office of Management and Budget would be barred from further mass layoffs until January 30.
- The agreement remains unofficial pending formal congressional approval and any required executive action.
