Trump signs funding bill, preventing federal shutdown

President Donald Trump signed a stopgap funding bill to keep the government running for the rest of the fiscal year. This allows Republican lawmakers to focus on border and tax legislation. The bill passed narrowly in Congress, with some Democrats supporting it to avoid blocking essential services. This has caused division within the party. Trump now aims to expand his tax cut package, which may proceed without Democratic support. However, some Republicans are concerned about the proposed tax changes.
