The bill passed with a 60-40 vote, including support from eight Democrats and Independent Senator Angus King, who caucuses with Democrats. Kentucky Senator Rand Paul was the only Republican to vote against it, citing insufficient spending cuts. The funding deal will keep the government operating through the end of January and includes appropriations for Veterans&#8217; Affairs, Agriculture, the legislative branch, and military construction.<\/p>\n<p>although the shutdown package does not extend enhanced Affordable Care Act (ACA) subsidies, senate Republicans have promised to hold a vote on that issue later. Some Democrats criticized the deal for not securing an immediate ACA subsidy extension, but the coalition supporting the bill argued the shutdown&#8217;s negative impact on Americans was too great to continue. president Trump stated he would abide by the terms, calling the deal &#8220;very good.&#8221; The House must still approve the legislation before it can be signed into law to officially end the shutdown.

The defecting senators argued the shutdown&rsquo;s pain for Americans had become too great and that the minor concessions secured from Republicans were sufficient.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Many of my friends are unhappy. They think we should have kept our government closed indefinitely,&rdquo; Senate Minority Whip Dick Durbin, the second-ranking Democrat who supported the shutdown deal,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/DailyCaller\/status\/1987978141147529487\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">said<\/a>&nbsp;on the Senate floor Monday. &ldquo;I cannot accept a strategy which wages political battle at the expense of my neighbor&rsquo;s paycheck or the food for his children.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;It&rsquo;s become clear after six weeks of the shutdown that the strategy of shutting down the government and forcing the Republicans to talk about the ACA wasn&rsquo;t working,&rdquo;&nbsp;King said in a <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/SenAngusKing\/status\/1987740665552224645\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">video<\/a> posted to social media on Sunday night. &ldquo;The shutdown wasn&rsquo;t achieving its goal, and it was at the same time hurting a lot of people.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>The group of seven Democrats and King <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/DailyCaller\/status\/1988034695125496227\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">voted<\/a> to advance the funding package on Monday evening despite scathing criticism from their Democratic colleagues, left-wing activists and the party&rsquo;s base.<\/p>\n<p>Fetterman told the Daily Caller News Foundation Monday that more than eight Democratic caucus members supported the Senate deal, but were scared to publicly back the legislation.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;There were plenty more than beyond just the eight that wanted to vote [yes] but they were afraid,&rdquo; Fetterman said.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;What has worked in the past is not working now,&rdquo; Michigan Sen. Elissa Slotkin, who voted against the government funding package, told reporters Monday regarding Schumer&rsquo;s strategy during the shutdown. &ldquo;We need to meet the moment, and we&rsquo;re not doing that.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Slotkin and a large chunk of congressional Democrats slammed the shutdown deal as insufficient for failing to secure an ACA subsidy extension. Though Senate Majority Leader John Thune has pledged to hold a vote on an extension bill of Democrats&rsquo; choosing in December, Republicans overwhelmingly oppose a clean extension.<\/p>\n<p>Republican Texas Sen. John Cornyn told reporters Monday that a planned vote on a Democratic ACA bill has &ldquo;no chance&rdquo; of passing.<\/p>\n<p>Though a number of senators briefly <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/DailyCaller\/status\/1988005256270331982\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">held up<\/a> the shutdown package Monday, every member ultimately consented to fast-track the legislation to a vote on final passage.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The American people have suffered for long enough. Let&rsquo;s not pointlessly drag this bill out,&rdquo; Senate Majority Leader John Thune said on the Senate floor Monday. &ldquo;Let&rsquo;s get it done, and get it over to the House, so that we can get this government open.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>House Speaker Mike Johnson urged lawmakers on Monday to return to Washington to vote on the spending measures later this week. The earliest the House could vote on the legislation is Wednesday due to Congress observing Veterans Day on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;And as of Sunday, nearly half of all domestic flights and U.S. flights were either canceled or delayed. And it&rsquo;s a very serious situation,&rdquo; Johnson told reporters. &ldquo;So, I&rsquo;m saying that by way of reminder, I&rsquo;m stating the obvious to all my colleagues, Republicans and Democrats in the House. You need to begin right now returning to the Hill. We have to do this as quickly as possible.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<div class=\"disclaimer\">\n<p>All content created by the Daily Caller News Foundation, an independent and nonpartisan newswire service, is available without charge to any legitimate news publisher that can provide a large audience.
