"US Democratic and Republican lawmakers have put an end to a spending impasse after 43 days of federal government shutdown."
"The lower house of US Congress, the House of Representatives, on Wednesday voted to pass a spending bill that paves the way for an end to a federal government shutdown after 43 days of impasse."
"The bill must now be signed by US President Donald Trump."
The House of Representatives voted Wednesday to pass a spending bill that ends a 43-day federal government shutdown. The vote resolves a prolonged spending impasse between Democratic and Republican lawmakers. Intense debate occurred in Congress during the shutdown period. Passage in the lower chamber clears a major legislative hurdle but requires the signature of US President Donald Trump to take effect. Once signed, federal operations and services affected by the shutdown will resume. The action follows a sustained stalemate that disrupted agency operations and prompted urgent negotiations to restore government funding.
