Senate approves short-term funding bill
The U.S. Senate has approved a temporary bill to fund federal agencies until December 11, 2026, in order to prevent a government shutdown ahead of the November 2026 elections. This comes after Congress failed to reach a final agreement on the budget, leading to the partial halt or reduction of work across wide sections of the government since October 2025. The law includes restrictions on reallocating funds for border security and aid programs, as well as a temporary halt to a rule that allows political officials to control hundreds of billions of dollars. This measure is considered essential to ensure the government's functioning and to avoid negative economic impacts, especially with the approaching elections, amidst ongoing disagreements between Republicans and Democrats over funding for certain programs and financial agencies.
