The US is facing a budget battle. 

House Republicans have unveiled a stopgap spending bill that would keep federal agencies funded and avoid a government shutdown.  

The measure is backed by President Donald Trump, but some key Republicans in the House have refused to back similar measures in the past. 

US Correspondent Richard Arnold told Mike Hosking that Trump has posted pleading for support, but it’s uncertain if he will get it.
