Senate expected to pass Speaker Johnson’s spending bill with support from Biden
Fox News
The Senate plans to pass a spending bill to avoid a government shutdown, and President Biden is expected to sign the bill to maintain current spending levels.
"Looking ahead, House Republicans must stop wasting time on extreme, partisan appropriations bills that break the bipartisan agreement two-thirds of them voted for and instead work quickly with Democrats on full-year appropriations bills," a Biden spokesperson said. "Congress must also address urgent national security and domestic needs – including funding for Israel, Ukraine, humanitarian assistance, border security, WIC, and other critical priorities that have bipartisan support."

A Senate aide told Fox News Digital on Wednesday there are currently discussions to speed up the procedure to get the CR to a full vote by Thursday night.
