Federal budget

CNN - Congress set up a chaotic, high-stakes fight over spending at the end of the year after both chambers voted on Wednesday to avert a government shutdown. The stopgap spending bill, which will fund the government until December 20, will next be sent to President Joe Biden to be signed into law. The Senate voted shortly after the House, where Speaker Mike Johnson turned to Democrats to help pass the bill amid GOP defections.
