President Joe Biden Signs Bipartisan Short-Term Spending Bill to Avoid Government Shutdown

President Joe Biden has signed a bipartisan short-term spending bill, preventing a potential government shutdown and giving lawmakers more time to sort out their differences over the federal budget. The bill was signed at the Legion of Honor Museum in San Francisco while attending the Asian-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit, and passed the House and Senate by wide bipartisan margins. President Biden has urged Congress to pass a long-term spending bill that would provide more certainty for the federal budget, but it remains to be seen if lawmakers can reach a compromise in the new year.
