Congressional leaders have reached a formal agreement to keep the government funded through the fiscal year, averting a potential partial government shutdown. The deal, announced by Speaker Mike Johnson, is a crucial step in ensuring the continued operation of the government.
The agreement includes funding for the Department of Homeland Security, a key issue that had been a major obstacle in the negotiations. With the deadline looming, members from both parties in the House and Senate will need to work together to pass the legislation before the Friday deadline.
