Summary
President Joe Biden signed a government funding bill, averting a shutdown and maintaining current funding levels through March 14.
The bill includes $100 billion in disaster aid and a one-year farm bill but excludes a debt limit extension sought by Donald Trump.
Despite vocal opposition from Trump and Elon Musk, both the Senate (85-11) and House (366-34) passed the bill with bipartisan support.
The White House highlighted the bill’s disaster relief provisions and rejection of tax cuts for billionaires as key achievements.
It didn’t include the debt ceiling raising that Trump & Musk blew things up for. They were able to get some of the funding changed in the second version back. For instance, Senate dems were able to do some maneuvering to get back most of that pediatric cancer funding that president-elect Musk and house republicans cut of their CR bill
The house had already technically passed an earlier bill that approved similar funding (intended to be merge into the main CR), so the senate dems just went back to that earlier bill and voted on it and got that passed
