Trump signs funding bill, preventing shutdown for six months

President Donald Trump signed a funding bill on Saturday to prevent a government shutdown for the next six months. The bill increases defense spending by $6 billion and border enforcement funding by $13 billion while cutting non-defense spending by $13 billion. The Senate passed the bill with a vote of 54-46, with 10 Democrats joining Republicans in support. This decision has caused a divide within the Democratic Party regarding support for the Republican-led measure. Senator Rand Paul was the only Republican to oppose the bill, citing concerns about federal debt. The funding will keep the government operational until September.
