Right. It extends a current stopgap spending plan through the end of the fiscal year, so through September at lower 2024 levels. This in particular was key to keeping hardline members on board for these forced cuts that we would see in some cases. It's a feature of these kinds of stopgap bills, also known as continuing resolutions, to keep spending flat.

But it's also a rarity to see Congress to fund the government this way for an entire year. Traditionally, we see them pass a full year appropriations plan, but bipartisan negotiations failed to come together in time. So Republicans turned to this partisan plan instead.

Right. Historically, we've seen hardline members of the conference always vote no. But in this case, they were yes. Some for the first time voting yes on a plan like this. It says a lot about the influence of President Trump. For example, hours before the vote, Trump said he would lead an effort to have a member of the conference.

This is Kentucky Republican Thomas Massey primaried because he was the lone no vote for the party in the House. And this happened, again, just before the vote. And within that same window, we saw a handful of holdouts fall in line who were undecided and vote yes.

And Republicans control just a slim majority in the Senate. And that's 53 seats are going to need 60 votes to overcome a filibuster. So they hope to get Democrats to hit that threshold. We know one Republican, Kentucky Republican Rand Paul, says he's a no vote. While one Democrat, John Fetterman, has signaled he will be the first to join the GOP to get this passed.
