众议院周二通过一项法案,将政府拨款期限延长至12月11日,为避免中期选举前的政府停摆扫清了道路。
该法案以压倒性的两党支持票数通过,现已送交唐纳德·特朗普总统办公桌等待签署生效。
通过将政府拨款期限从9月30日的截止日期往后延长,议员们消除了停摆威胁,以便专注于11月选举前的最后竞选冲刺——此次选举将决定国会的控制权归属。
在本届国会任期内,政府拨款一直是极具争议的议题,本届国会还创下了美国历史上最长时间政府停摆的纪录。但周二的投票几乎未引发任何波澜,议员们都急于离开华盛顿返回竞选活动。
众议院议员对参议院版本的短期政府拨款法案进行了投票,该法案于上月参议院休会夏季休假前获得通过。
这项参议院法案与众议院最初提出的拨款延期方案存在多处不同,其中包括未为移民海关执法局和海关与边境保护局提供额外拨款——这两个机构的拨款已延长至特朗普任期结束——以及暂时叫停一项拟议的行政规则,批评者警告该规则会进一步将联邦拨款政治化。

The House passed a bill on Tuesday to extend government funding to December 11, clearing a path to avert a shutdown ahead of the midterm elections.
The bill passed with overwhelming bipartisan support and now heads to President Donald Trump’s desk to be signed into law.
By extending government funding beyond the September 30 deadline, lawmakers are taking the threat of a shutdown off the table to focus on the final campaign sprint ahead of the November elections, where control of Congress is at stake.
Government funding has frequently been a divisive issue this Congress, which holds the record for the longest shutdown in US history. But Tuesday’s vote passed with little fanfare as lawmakers are eager to get out of Washington and back on the campaign trail.
House lawmakers voted on the Senate’s version of a short-term government funding bill that the chamber passed last month before leaving town for August recess.
The Senate measure differed from an initial funding extension offered by the House in several ways, including a lack of funding for Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection, which have already been funded through the end of Trump’s term, and a temporary block on a proposed administration rule that critics warn would further politicize federal grants.
