US Media: The Senate is working hard to reach an agreement, expected to pass the appropriation bill
NBC reports that after the House of Representatives passed an emergency funding bill to prevent a government "shutdown", the bill will be handed over to the Senate for voting. The consent of all 100 senators is required to pass the emergency funding bill in order to avoid a government shutdown before midnight. When asked whether there would be a vote before midnight, US Senate Majority Leader Schumer said: "We are now completing amendment procedures." If the Senate's vote exceeds the last deadline at midnight, a government shutdown may only last for several hours and have minimal impact on federal functions. Meanwhile, the Senate is also drafting a "Social Security Fairness Act" which could reach consensus at the same time and pass tonight.
