Congressional leaders reach agreement to keep government funded into March


Congressional leaders have come to an agreement on a two-tranche short-term funding bill to keep the government funded into March, a source familiar with the matter told CNN. The agreement comes just before the first funding deadline of January 19. House Republicans will have a conference call Sunday night to discuss the continuing resolution, the source told CNN. Those numbers include $1.59 trillion for fiscal year 2024, with $886 billion for defense spending and $704 billion in non-defense spending. Schumer and Johnson also agreed to a $69 billion side deal in adjustments that will go toward non-defense domestic spending.
