President Trump signed a short-term spending bill on Sept. 27 that extends Federal government funding through Nov. 21. FY2019 government funding had been set to run out on Sept. 30.
On Sept. 26, the Senate voted to pass the continuing resolution (CR) spending bill by a vote of 82-15. The House version of the bill (H.R. 4378), sponsored by Rep. Nita Lowey, D-N.Y., was passed on Sept. 19.
