Government Shutdown Averted for Now After Dramatic Day for Kevin McCarthy

Government Shutdown Averted for Now After Dramatic Day for Kevin McCarthy
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Congress narrowly averted a potential government shutdown after Republicans and Democrats reached a deal that includes a 45-day funding bill, with Democrats bailing out GOP House Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s beleaguered efforts.

After passing in the House of Representatives on Saturday afternoon, the Senate debated on the measure for hours. The vote was delayed by one senator calling for the bill to include aid to Ukraine before the upper chamber finally garnered enough votes to approve the measure. After a vote of 88-9, the Senate sent the bill to President Joe Biden to avoid the shutdown with just hours until the midnight deadline. Biden is expected to sign the measure.

The stopgap bill, which relied on bipartisan support from Democrats in the Republican-led House, comes after the lower chamber had failed to get a federal funding measure passed due to political infighting. The process was stalled by the far-right, MAGA-aligned members of the House GOP, who called for massive spending cuts and have threatened to vacate McCarthy from his role as speaker.

While speaking on the floor shortly after the vote, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, a New York Democrat, praised both parties, saying they have “come together to avert a shutdown.”

“The Senate showed that bipartisanship was the only way and the same will be true again in 45 days,” Schumer said.

Newsweek reached out via email on Saturday night to representatives for Schumer and McCarthy for comment.

Just hours before a looming government shutdown, which Biden said in a statement would have “inflicted needless pain on millions of hardworking Americans,” Congress finally reached a bipartisan short-term agreement that keeps the government funded for 45 days. The measure’s passage gives Congress time to continue developing a long-term solution.

Biden issued a statement shortly after Congress signed off on the bill, calling it “good news.” However, the president took aim at extreme” Republicans for stalling the vote until the day of the deadline.

In the House, the measure passed with a vote of 335-91, with bipartisan support from a majority of Democrats. Of the 91 votes against the measure, 90 were Republicans. The stopgap bill allows critical government services to continue, which include disaster relief funds, and an extension of a federal flood insurance program. However, the the House-approved measure did not include aid to Ukraine, which became a point of contention in the Senate.

Senator Michael Bennet, a Colorado Democrat, caused the upper chamber to delay the vote as the clock ticked down to the deadline, his colleagues said. Bennet reportedly demanded a promise of quick consideration of aid to Ukraine, forcing Congressional leadership to work up a commitment.

Bennet, who ultimately voted yes on the measure, cited his family history as the reason for his delay and told The Washington Post that he wanted the world to know that congress could come back with a “bipartisan effort to fund Ukraine properly.”

Newsweek reached out to Bennet for comment on Saturday night.

In the statement, Biden also lamented the lack of U.S. aid for Ukraine, saying “there is no new funding in this agreement to continue that support.”

“We cannot under any circumstances allow American support for Ukraine to be interrupted,” the president said. “I fully expect the Speaker will keep his commitment to the people of Ukraine and secure passage of the support needed to help Ukraine at this critical moment.”

This is a breaking news story and will be updated.
