House Republicans vote on crucial budget bill today

House Republicans plan to vote today on a spending bill to fund the government through September. They face opposition from Democrats, who are expected to block the legislation amid rising recession fears and stock market declines. President Trump expressed uncertainty about the economy in a recent interview, contributing to market volatility. Analysts have raised recession likelihood estimates from 30% to 40%, citing U.S. policies and rising consumer costs. The House vote is crucial, as the government could run out of funding by Friday. Republicans need strong party support to pass the bill, and bipartisan cooperation will be essential in the Senate to avoid a government shutdown.
