Geee Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 The Hill Congress passed a one-week stopgap funding bill Friday to prevent a government shutdown on the 100th day of the Trump administration. Senators cleared the continuing resolution by voice vote shortly after the House voted 382-30 on the legislation. Lawmakers had until midnight to pass government funding and send the bill to President Trump's desk. The measure will keep the government open through May 5 and give negotiators more time to reach a larger agreement on an omnibus bill that would include funding for the rest of the fiscal year, which ends Sept. 30.
