Republicans in US House approve stopgap spending bill ahead of Oct. 1 deadline

The U.S. House passed a temporary spending bill to maintain government operations until the fall, sending it to the Senate for revisions. This move comes ahead of the crucial Oct. 1 deadline to avoid a government shutdown. While Republicans supported the bill, it underscores ongoing partisan tensions over long-term funding solutions. This temporary measure buys time but highlights the need for a more sustainable plan to address the nation's fiscal health.
