WASHINGTON ‒ The federal government is on track to reopen after the longest shutdown in U.S. history , but final votes are still needed in the Senate and then the House to end the 41-day impasse.
The Senate voted 60-40 late on Nov. 9 to advance legislation to end the shutdown. Eight Democratic senators relented on long-held demands over health care policy and joined 52 Republicans to end the filibuster blocking the measure.
A final Senate vote could come as early as Monday, Nov. 10. The Senate is set to reconvene at 11 a.m. ET. But because senators changed the temporary funding measure that the House sent them, to temporarily extend funding to Jan. 30, the House must vote again before sending the bill to President Donald Trump .
