The U.S. House of Representatives will vote on the temporary funding bill next Tuesday

The U.S. House of Representatives will vote next Tuesday on a temporary funding bill. This vote will use the "suspension of the rules" procedure, which means the bill must receive a two-thirds majority support from those present to pass. This high threshold voting procedure is typically used for legislative matters that are less controversial and have bipartisan consensus.

The background for this vote is the funding deadline pressure facing the U.S. federal government. The federal funding for the current fiscal year will expire on September 30, and if Congress fails to pass a new funding bill or a temporary continuing resolution before then, the federal government will face the risk of a partial shutdown. Previously, the House and Senate have each advanced their own temporary funding proposals aimed at extending government funding into the fall.
