'Speaker Johnson bested Trump': Internet erupts after deal reached to avert shutdown

Leaders in the Republican-majority US House on Sunday announced a bipartisan deal to fund the government through Dec. 20, avoiding a shutdown that was scheduled to begin Sept. 30.

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) revealed the plan Sunday to his colleagues in a letter. The House is expected to vote on it Wednesday, sending it to the Senate, and to Pres. Joe Biden for his signature if it passes both chambers of Congress.

The bill doesn't include the SAVE Act, a provision that would require proof-of-citizenship to vote and was the reason for the defeat of a previous funding bill earlier this month. The SAVE Act is a priority for former Pres. Donald Trump, the Republican presidential nominee.

The bill is also missing $10B the earlier version provided for Federal Emergency Management Agency disaster relief funding. But in addition to keeping the government running for three months, the bill allots $231M in additional funding to the Secret Service — a priority since Trump has been the target of two assassination attempts in recent months.

Assuming this bill becomes law, Congress will face a December deadline to again fund the government in addition to a Jan. 1 deadline to decide whether to raise the US' debt ceiling or face defaulting on federal government debt.
