Congress Passes $1 Trillion Short Term Spending Bill, Goes on Break

Posted on September 22, 2014 by Dene Westbrook

After failing to pass the 12 budget bills before the October 1st fiscal year began, Congress enacted a $1 Trillion short term spending measure to avoid a government shutdown. Congress is now on recess for the mid-term campaign season. The short term budget extension sunsets on December 11th, ensuring Congress comes back for a lame duck session.
