President Biden Signs Funding Bill After Trump's Intervention, Averts Shutdown Until March 2025
Dec 21, 2024, 04:33 PM
President Joe Biden signed a stopgap funding bill into law on Saturday, December 21, averting a government shutdown just days before Christmas. The legislation, which was passed by Congress after days of political upheaval, will keep the federal government funded through March 2025. The bill faced challenges after intervention from President-elect Donald Trump had imperiled its congressional passage earlier this week. The Senate passed the bill with 85 votes in favor and 11 against.
