House Pushes Stopgap Funding Bill as Shutdown Deadline Approaches | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

As the deadline for a potential government shutdown approaches, the House is set to vote on a stopgap measure aimed at keeping the government running through September. The bill, introduced by House Republicans, includes increased defense spending, additional funding for veterans' healthcare, and cuts to non-defense spending. While Republicans pushing for passage with minimal Democratic support, the proposal has faced strong opposition from House Democrats, who argue it will harm American families. The bill’s fate now hinges on whether it can garner enough support in both the House and Senate before Friday's deadline.
