Good news: President Donald Trump signed a $1.2 trillion funding package into law Tuesday afternoon just hours after the House approved the bill, ending a brief partial government shutdown that began early Saturday morning.
The House voted 217-215, with support from 21 Democrats, following Senate passage last week.
“I’m thrilled to sign the Consolidated Appropriations Act to immediately reopen the federal government,” Trump said during a bill signing in the Oval Office, surrounded by Republican members of Congress.
