Stopgap measures to avoid government shutdown fail in Senate

Season 2025 Episode 262 | 3m 21s

House Republicans voted on their plan to avoid a government shutdown with a temporary, seven-week funding bill. But within hours, that was blocked by Democrats in the Senate. Their own plan for extending funding also fell short. So what does it mean? Congressional correspondent Lisa Desjardins reports on the latest as we approach the September 30 deadline.

Major corporate funding for the PBS News Hour is provided by BDO, BNSF, Consumer Cellular, American Cruise Lines, and Raymond James. Funding for the PBS NewsHour Weekend is provided by Consumer Cellular and Cunard Cruise Line. For a complete list of funders for the PBS NewsHour and PBS NewsHour weekend, click here.
