The United States will avoid a government shutdown this autumn after a large majority in the House of Representatives backed a temporary budget law.
The measure funds the federal government for the next three months. The Senate has already approved it, and President Donald Trump must sign it. That signature is considered a formality.
The agreement removes the immediate threat of a shutdown as members of Congress prepare for campaigning ahead of the November midterm elections.
