House Rejects GOP Funding Plan Amid Shutdown Threat
News summary

The U.S. House of Representatives rejected a Republican-led spending plan aimed at preventing a government shutdown, with a vote tally of 220-202, as 14 Republicans joined Democrats in opposition. The proposal, put forth by House Speaker Mike Johnson, included the controversial SAVE Act, which mandates proof of citizenship for voter registration, a measure backed by former President Trump. With only 13 days remaining before the funding deadline, lawmakers are now uncertain about the next steps, as the Senate seeks a bipartisan solution. Johnson expressed disappointment and is exploring alternative plans to avoid a shutdown, emphasizing the need for a timely resolution. Meanwhile, Democrats criticized the SAVE Act, arguing it would disenfranchise voters and is unnecessary, given that noncitizen voting is already illegal. The failure of this plan highlights deep divisions within the Republican Party and raises concerns about the implications of a potential government shutdown.
