Trump signs bill to avert government shutdown for two weeks

  • President Trump signs a short-term spending bill to keep the federal government funded for two weeks, just hours before a midnight deadline, to avert a partial shutdown.
  • Trump and congressional leaders can now move on to the far more contentious task of passing a longer-term spending bill before the end of the year.
  • The negotiations are expected to center around defense funding, children's health insurance and immigration issues.
