JUST IN: The Senate has passed a stopgap bill to fund the government into December and send $12 billion to Ukraine. It now heads to the House as a shutdown deadline looms.
Government funding is currently on track to expire Friday at midnight, but the stopgap bill would extend funding through December 16, setting up a potential funding fight at the end of the year instead. The House will next need to pass the measure once it is approved by the Senate before it can be sent to President Joe Biden for his signature. Lawmakers have expressed confidence there will not be a shutdown, but it is typical of Congress in recent years to run right up against funding deadlines.
Senate Democratic leaders had been pushing to pass it along with government funding as a result of a deal cut to secure Manchin’s support for Democrats’ Inflation Reduction Act – a key priority for the party – which passed over the summer. But Republicans warned they would vote against the effort to tie permitting reform to the funding extension, in part because they did not want to reward Manchin over his support for the Inflation Reduction Act.
