House Republicans revealed a Trump-approved spending bill on March 8 that lays out a plan to keep the federal government and its agencies funded through the end of the fiscal year.

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) wants his chamber to vote on the 100-page continuing resolution (CR) on March 11, while Democrats, led by Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) already stand in opposition.
