The US House of Representatives on Tuesday passed<\/a><\/span> a temporary funding bill designed to prevent a potential federal government shutdown before the fiscal year ends on Sept. 30, authorizing funding to continue at current levels for federal agencies through Dec. 4.<\/p>\n

The House approved the stopgap measure in a 220-205 vote. The bill received backing from 213 Republicans, six Democrats, and California Independent Representative Kevin Kiley. Only one Republican lawmaker voted against the bill.<\/p>\n

The legislative step comes at a time when the House of Representatives has so far managed to approve only three separate appropriations bills, which cover national security, the State Department and related programs; agriculture, rural development, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and related agencies; and military construction, the Department of Veterans Affairs and related agencies.<\/p>\n

In the Senate, Democratic and Republican members of the appropriations committees negotiating the budget have yet to resolve the impasse over government funding.<\/p>\n

Representative Tom Cole, the Republican Chairman of the House Appropriations Committee, assessed the situation during a speech on the House floor on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

“The harsh reality before us is clear: the end of the fiscal year is outpacing our remaining work,” Cole said. “Our conference refuses to let Senate Democrats’ obstructionism and inaction trigger an artificial government shutdown at the end of September. That is why we are acting before a funding crisis occurs, rather than reacting to one.”<\/p>\n

Cole added: “This short-term continuing resolution, free of any extraneous policy riders, keeps the government open, preserves the progress we have made, and maintains a path toward full-year appropriations.”<\/p>\n

The temporary funding legislation also contains a provision authorizing payments of $174,000 each to Alfredia Scott, the widow of the late Democratic Representative David Scott, and to the legal heirs of Republican Senator Lindsey Graham, who died earlier this month.<\/p>\n

The majority of House Democrats strongly criticized the bill prior to the vote, arguing that the text was drafted without a bipartisan negotiation process.<\/p>\n

Representative Rosa DeLauro, the ranking Democrat on the House Appropriations Committee, outlined her position during a House Rules Committee hearing on Monday.<\/p>\n

“If I am to support a continuing resolution, it must keep the government running, be free of poison pills, and protect Congress\u2019s constitutional authority over spending decisions,” DeLauro said.<\/p>\n

The measure approved by the House now heads to the Senate.<\/p>\n

The bill is considered to have weak prospects of passing the Senate due to the chamber’s 60-vote threshold and anticipated opposition from Senate Democrats.<\/p>\n
