The longest government shutdown in U.S. history ended Wednesday evening after 43 days. House Republicans and a handful of House Democrats passed a new continuing resolution (CR) in a largely party-line vote, 222-209.
Nothing in the deal would require Trump and the OMB to spend funds appropriated by Congress as required by law — which was a Democratic demand at the start of the shutdown. Trump and Office of Management and Budget Director Russ Vought have repeatedly refused to spend funds appropriated by Congress or strong-arm Republican lawmakers to “cancel” funding they don’t like.
Senators Angus King (I-ME), John Fetterman (D-PA), Catherine Cortez Masto (D-NV), Jacky Rosen (D-NV), Tim Kaine (D-VA), Dick Durbin (D-IL), Maggie Hassan (D-NH), and Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) voted in favor of the continuing resolution (CR) following a bipartisan agreement, making Wednesday’s House vote possible
Senate Republicans were largely on board with the deal. Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), who has been voting “no” on the GOP CR for weeks, was the only Republican to split from his caucus.
The new CR and the end of the lockdown remove much of Democrats’ leverage in their fight to protect expiring Obamacare subsidies and prevent significant premium increases for millions of Americans. The bipartisan deal includes a promise that Senate Democrats will get a vote on a bill of their choice before the end of the year. Of course, this promise will not guarantee that the Affordable Care Act bill will pass the Sentat or, if it does, that the House will pass the bill. House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) has already said he won’t make a promise to introduce a Democratic ACA bill.

The new CR will fund the federal government through January 30 alongside an Agriculture-FDA, Military Construction-Veterans Affairs and Legislative Branch minibus. The minibus would continue SNAP funding through September 30, 2026 and would also include reversing federal employee layoffs that the Trump administration carried out during the shutdown, a move the administration has openly presented as an effort to gain leverage in shutdown negotiations.

Wednesday’s vote follows a Senate vote Sunday evening, in which a group of Democratic senators broke ranks with their party, giving in to their demand to expand Obamacare subsidies, and joined a Senate deal to reopen the government.
