"Congress Strikes Last-Minute Funding Deal to Avert Shutdown"

The Biden administration and House Republican leaders have reached a deal on a government funding package, but it's uncertain if Congress will pass it before Saturday's shutdown deadline. The agreement includes funding for the Department of Homeland Security through the fiscal year, with a tight timeline for approval. If passed, the entire federal government will be funded through the rest of the fiscal year, ending a months-long standoff and avoiding a partial government shutdown.
