38 Republicans Help Defeat Trump-Backed CR as Shutdown Looms
Dec 20, 2024, 12:06 AM
The U.S. House of Representatives has failed to pass a Trump-backed Continuing Resolution (CR) to fund the government and suspend the debt ceiling, increasing the likelihood of a government shutdown at midnight. The bill, referred to as 'Johnson's plan B' and supported by Speaker Mike Johnson, required a two-thirds majority but fell short with a vote of 174-235-1. A total of 38 Republicans joined Democrats in opposing the measure. Following the failed vote, the House went into recess. With no clear plan in place, Congress faces uncertainty on the eve of the shutdown deadline.
