House Republicans unveiled a continuing resolution to prevent a government shutdown. The bill, set for a vote on March 11, increases defense spending while reducing nondefense spending by 8% compared to last year. Democrats oppose these cuts and Trump’s tax extensions. Key details include:
- Defense spending: $892.5 billion.
- Nondefense spending decreased to $708 billion.
- No funding for earmarks, Social Security, or Medicare.
The bill requires Republican unity and potential Democratic support in the Senate to pass. President Trump supports the bill.
