From News Nation:
“Senate
advances bill to avoid government shutdown, deadline Wednesday”
The Senate
voted to keep the government open until December. The final passage of the bill
is expected on Wednesday, which is also when government funding runs out. The
bill, if passed, would keep the government funded at current levels until Dec.
11. As NewsNation previously reported, members of Congress from both sides of
the aisle have stressed they don’t want the government to shut down. The House
of Representatives voted 359-57 last week to push the spending bill through the
lower chamber of Congress. Funding for most federal government programs will
continue at their current level. In the Senate, the vote was 82-6.
^ I don’t
understand why people aren’t more concerned about this since there could be no
deal to avoid a Government Shutdown before the close of business tomorrow which
would effect millions of people. ^
