Bipartisan Senate plan to avoid shutdown hits House roadblock: live coverage

The House and Senate are pushing forward with their own, separate government funding plans on Wednesday.

The Senate on Tuesday unveiled and advanced a bipartisan measure that extends government funding through Nov. 17 and provides money for Ukraine and disaster relief.

House Republicans, meanwhile, advanced four GOP-crafted full-year spending bills on Tuesday, a vote that gave Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) an incremental victory but will not help stave off a shutdown.

Government funding expires Sept. 30 and any bill to fund the government needs to be approved by both chambers and signed by President Biden.
