Just as the government funding deadline arrived early Saturday, Congress passed an interim plan to prevent a shutdown after a chaotic few days and nights in Washington.
President Biden is expected to sign the funding bill on Saturday.
The week’s turmoil on Capitol Hill, marking the close of the 118th Congress, offers a glimpse into the uphill battle the 119th Congress is likely to face when the GOP has an even slimmer majority in the House.
The spending deal comes just one month before President-elect Trump returns to the White House with an ambitious agenda that may be tougher to implement than expected.
Also in the wee hours, the Senate approved changes to Social Security laws, boosting benefits for 2 million retired public servants. It also approved a bill that transfers the RFK Stadium site to the District of Columbia.
