President-elect Donald Trump has come out in support of a new short-term government funding bill.
House Republicans unveiled the 116-page bill, down from over 1,500 pages, on Thursday afternoon. It includes millions for disaster relief to help communities impacted by Hurricanes Helene and Milton as well as money for farmers who have been impacted by droughts, wildfires and floods.
The continuing resolution also added a two-year debt limit extension until January 30, 2027.
“Now we can Make America Great Again, very quickly, which is what the People gave us a mandate to accomplish,’ Trump said on Truth Social while encouraging “All Republicans” and Democrats to vote yes on the bill.
The new version of the bill does not include pay raises for members of Congress or the transfer of land for the Washington Commanders to build a new football stadium.
