Lawmakers in Congress have until March 23 to pass a $1.2 trillion spending bill or the government shuts down for the third time this year. House Republicans have yet to release the text of the bill for lawmakers to examine.

The bill would implement last month's budget agreement, providing 10 percent increases for the Pentagon and domestic agencies.
