House Speaker Johnson Unveils Stopgap Bill to Avert Shutdown, Funds Govt Until Dec. 20

House Speaker Mike Johnson has introduced a three-month stopgap funding bill to avert a government shutdown. The bill, which excludes the Trump-backed SAVE Act requiring proof of citizenship for voter registration, will fund the government until December 20. It includes an additional $230 million for the U.S. Secret Service to enhance security for presidential candidates. The bill is expected to be voted on by Wednesday, with both Republicans and Democrats needing to support it to prevent a shutdown. This move comes amid intra-party tensions and a looming September 30 deadline for government funding.
