The Senate released its 79-page plan to avoid a shutdown. Here's what's in it.
On Tuesday evening, the Senate released a deal that is likely the last chance to avert a government shutdown.
The 79-page bill would keep the government open until Nov. 17 and also provide about $6 billion for the war effort in Ukraine and another $6 billion for disaster relief efforts in places like Maui and Florida.
“It will continue to fund the government at present levels while maintaining our commitment to Ukraine's security and humanitarian needs while also ensuring those impacted by natural disasters across the country begin to get the resources they need," Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said Tuesday.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell also endorsed the deal, calling it a "standard, responsible step forward."
