(CNN) — Congress is moving quickly to pass a funding package that would end the longest federal shutdown in the nation’s history.
The House is set to vote on Wednesday on a compromise bill after the Senate approved the package on Monday evening. Eight Democratic senators defied their party’s leadership to support the legislation, dropping their key demand that the legislation extend the enhanced Affordable Care Act subsidies that are set to lapse at year’s end.

Here’s what’s in the bill, based on summaries provided by Congress:
