Senate Passes Stopgap Funding Bill, Avoiding Shutdown

The video discusses a stopgap measure to keep the U.S. government funded until February 18th. The Senate and House have passed this measure, which awaits President Biden's signature. The measure was conditional on a failed vote regarding Biden's vaccine mandates. Senator Schumer expressed relief at the temporary solution, which extends the Trump 2021 budget. However, there has been little progress on Biden's full-year funding package. The measure prevents a government shutdown, affecting federal employees and services.
