The House could vote as early as Wednesday on a temporary measure to fund the government through the beginning of next year as Democrats seek a way to starve off a shutdown.

Government funding runs out Friday at midnight. The House measure would then go to the Senate for approval.

Democrats are seeking the stopgap solution as they struggle to deal with their December agenda, which includes keeping the government running, passing a critical defense bill, raising the debt ceiling and final approval for President Joe Biden's signature Build Back Better legislation.
