President-elect Donald Trump expressed his support on Thursday for the new proposal put forth by House Republicans to prevent a government shutdown. This comes after his last-minute demands had caused confusion and uncertainty surrounding the original plan.
In a statement on Truth Social, Trump urged both Republicans and Democrats to prioritize the best interests of the country and vote in favor of the bill without delay.
The proposal aims to avert a shutdown by providing necessary funding for government operations and addressing key issues that have been at the center of the debate.
Trump's endorsement of the new plan signals a potential shift in the ongoing negotiations and could help pave the way for bipartisan support.
The situation remains fluid as lawmakers work to finalize the details of the bill and secure the necessary votes for its passage.
With the deadline looming, the pressure is on for Congress to come to a resolution and avoid a disruptive shutdown that could have far-reaching consequences.
As the situation continues to evolve, all eyes will be on Capitol Hill to see how lawmakers navigate this critical juncture and whether they can reach a consensus that will keep the government running smoothly.
