LIVE: US House Returns To Washington For Vote To End Government Shutdown | Mike Johnson | GOP | CNBC TV18
The House has passed the spending package to reopen the government in a 222-209 vote, with six Democrats voting to support it, and two Republicans voting against it. It now heads to President Trump’s desk for his signature.
The U.S. House of Representatives convenes after the Senate passed a bill to end the government shutdown. The House is expected to hold a final vote on the Bill.
Members of the House of Representatives headed back to Washington on Tuesday, after a 53-day break, braving the congestion at the nation's tangled airports for a vote that could bring the longest U.S. government shutdown in history to a close.
With nearly 1,200 flights canceled on Tuesday due to the shutdown, lawmakers including Republican Representatives Rick Crawford of Arkansas and Trent Kelly of Mississippi said they were carpooling to the Capitol, while Representative Derrick Van Orden said he was making the 16-hour drive from Wisconsin on his motorcycle.
The Republican-controlled House is due to vote Wednesday afternoon on a compromise that would restore funding to government agencies and end a shutdown that started on October 1 and is now in its 42nd day. The Republican-controlled Senate approved the deal on Monday night and House Speaker Mike Johnson has said he expects it to pass his chamber as well. Republican House members have also been at home for weeks in which Trump’s approval ratings dipped as many Americans struggle to deal with food, housing and health care costs. The party’s vulnerability on the issue was underscored by bigger-than-expected Democratic wins in governor’s races in Virginia and New Jersey last week. Only those Republicans with a national platform — like Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene — have been able to beat the GOP blackout to raise vehement concerns. But that may change when the restive GOP gang is back in town, even as Trump blasts what he calls “fake” polls showing Americans are feeling anxiety over their economic circumstances.
President Donald Trump is expected to sign it into law. "We're opening up our country. Should have never been closed," he said at a Veterans Day event in Arlington, Virginia.
By reconvening the House, he’ll revive the scandal over convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, which has been dormant, much to the White House’s satisfaction during the shutdown. The speaker on Wednesday will be finally forced to swear in Democratic Rep. Adelita Grijalva, who won a special election in Arizona in September. His refusal to do so before now was controversial because she promised to provide the final signature on a petition to force a vote on a bipartisan move to defy Johnson and require the Justice Department to release the Epstein files.
