🚨🇺🇸BREAKING: SENATE GREENLIGHTS PLAN C TO KEEP THE GOVERNMENT FUNDED—FINALLY
After missing the midnight deadline and sparking a brief government shutdown, the Senate passed a stopgap bill early Saturday to keep federal operations running through March.
Yes, it took three tries to get here.
The bill includes disaster relief and farming aid but dodges Trump’s push to suspend the debt ceiling—because heaven forbid Congress tackles a big issue head-on.
“Plan C” came after a bipartisan plan ignored GOP priorities and a Trump-backed proposal was torpedoed in the House.
Looks like Washington chose the path of least resistance, leaving Trump’s call for a long-term fix on hold.
I guess Congress is saying "Why solve a problem today when you can kick it down the road until March?"
Biden says he’ll sign the bill, sending everyone home for the holidays—because who needs another political meltdown before Christmas?
