In a dramatic race against time, the U.S. House of Representatives passed a crucial funding bill just hours before the federal government was set to shut down. The bill now moves to the Senate for final approval.
The short-term funding measure is set to keep the government operations running for a while longer to allow lawmakers more time to reach an agreement on a full budget. The bipartisan move was aimed at avoiding federal service disruptions and possible furloughs of government employees.
The senators seem hopeful regarding the passing of the bill; however, it is going to be done within hours. The entire nation has now turned towards the Senate for a possible resolution in the budgeting impasse.
