Congressional Democrats and Republicans have eight days to strike a funding deal before the government goes into a partial shutdown.
  • Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson announced a new temporary government funding proposal with key amendments from the original bill he put forward earlier this month.
  • The new proposal goes against Donald Trump’s wishes and makes some concessions to Democrats.
  • The new bill would fund the government through Dec. 20 and does not include any part of the SAVE Act, the Trump-backed election security proposal that would require people to show proof of citizenship to register as a voter.
  • The previous version of Johnson’s bill, which Trump preferred, was attached to the SAVE Act and would have funded the government through March 2025.

    Remain calm, and don’t panic. An alternate timeline appears to be leaking over into this one due to abnormally high flux densities recently. It should resolve on its own shortly. I return you now to your regularly scheduled weird as fuck reality.
