Overview
- The bill cleared the Senate 60–40 and now heads to the House, where a vote is expected Wednesday before it goes to President Trump, who has signaled support.
- The measure funds the government through January 30 and reverses shutdown-era layoffs while guaranteeing back pay for furloughed federal workers.
- Three full-year appropriations are included for agriculture, military construction and veterans affairs, and legislative agencies, securing SNAP funding through September 2026.
- Enhanced Affordable Care Act premium tax credits are not extended in the package, with Republicans instead promising a December Senate vote that may not reach the House.
- The deal exposed sharp Democratic rifts as progressives and some governors condemned moderates who joined Republicans, even as the shutdown’s disruptions to air travel, food aid and paychecks mounted.
