On Saturday, Congress unveiled its latest spending plan in response to mounting pressure from President Donald Trump, who urged Republican lawmakers to avert a potential government shutdown.
The proposed spending package aims to address critical funding needs while navigating the divided priorities within the GOP.

House Republicans released a six-month stopgap government spending plan that would cut nondefense programs while increasing funding for defense.

The current deadline to prevent a shutdown is March 14.
