Summary

After a frantic scramble by lawmakers, the House passed a last-minute stopgap funding bill just hours before tonight's midnight deadline to avoid a government shutdown. Now, the bill heads to the Senate for approval. The latest plan would extend government funding into March and includes disaster relief and farming provisions, but does not include a suspension of the debt limit, which President-elect Donald Trump has been demanding that Republicans address. South Dakota Republican Rep. Dusty Johnson and Maryland Democratic Rep. Jamie Raskin discuss the progress made today. Plus, the growing concerns about bird flu. Veronica Miracle visits a dairy farm in California, where there is now a statewide emergency over the spread of the virus livestock. Learn more about your ad choices.
