Congress releases a short-term funding bill as deadline nears to avert a holiday shutdown

Congressional leaders have released a short-term funding bill to avert a government shutdown

A GOP-backed spending bill is in jeopardy amid opposition from House conservatives and President-elect Trump.

President-elect Donald Trump demands Republicans renegotiate a spending bill days before a potential government shutdown, urging a showdown with Democrats.

Trump said he opposes the bipartisan spending deal that was struck to avoid a partial government shutdown this weekend
