House Republicans seek bipartisan support for interim spending bill
House Republicans have introduced a new interim spending bill, seeking bipartisan support from Democrats. This bill maintains current funding levels but includes cuts to social programs and increases for the Pentagon. Previous attempts to pass a comprehensive spending package failed, leading to a series of stopgap measures. Lawmakers are now under pressure as the government shutdown deadline approaches. Democrats are debating whether to support the bill, as they have concerns about cuts and the lack of compromise from Republicans. The outcome remains uncertain as both parties navigate the funding crisis.
