The U.S. House of Representatives passed a stopgap funding bill on Saturday with overwhelming Democratic support, after Republican Speaker Kevin McCarthy backed down from an earlier demand by party hardliners for a partisan bill.
Time remained short to avoid the federal government's fourth partial shutdown in a decade, which will begin at 12:01 a.m. ET (0401 GMT) on Sunday unless the Democratic-majority Senate passes it and President Joe Biden signs it into law in time.
The House voted 335-91 to fund the government for another 45 days, with more Democrats than Republicans supporting it.
