House finally passes defense spending bill and 2 others, while 1 fails in late-night vote series
Fox News
House Republicans passed three of four spending bills they brought to the floor on Thursday night, including the beleaguered Pentagon appropriations legislation.
The passage is a modest win for House Republicans after over a week of chaos and disagreements that saw multiple attempts to advance spending bills fail or scuttled altogether. However, a government shutdown is still growing likely with less than two days for the House and Senate to agree on a deal before the Oct. 1 midnight deadline.

Republicans' defense spending bill passed 218 to 210, with Democrat Reps. Jared Golden of Maine and Marie Gluesenkamp Perez of Washington joining the GOP to pass it. Republican Reps. Tim Burchett of Tennessee and Ken Buck of Colorado voted against it. Follow on Twitter at @liz_elkind and send tips to elizabeth.elkind@fox.com
