Late Sunday evening, the Senate voted 60-40 to advance legislation to end the longest government shutdown. Eight Democrats joined most Senate Republicans to advance the bill.

The timing of final passage of the revised package remains unclear as the legislation still needs a final Senate vote and House approval. We discussed the latest congressional efforts made to end the ongoing government shutdown!
