_senate-approves-361-2-trillion-spending-plan-and-averts-government-shutdown.webp "Welcome to Fan Reviews News. In the early hours of Saturday morning, the Senate overwhelmingly voted in favor of the spending plan, with a vote of 74-to-24. This comes after the House of Representatives had advanced the 1,012-page spending bill earlier, with a 286-134 vote. It's important to note that this funding plan covers approximately 70% of discretionary government spending. The bill aims to fully fund the government until the end of September, putting an end to a heated and prolonged debate that has been ongoing for almost six months into the fiscal year. However, it did face some opposition, particularly from the GOP. This is certainly a significant moment and a relief for many. We will always keep you informed with the facts, on Fan Reviews News.")
