US House votes down government funding package as shutdown looms
==========
The US House of Representatives rejected a government funding package on September 27, 2023, with a vote of 220-202, raising the risk of a federal government shutdown by September 30. The package was backed by House Speaker Mike Johnson but opposed by 14 Republicans and nearly all House Democrats. A shutdown could furlough millions of public workers, including military personnel, just one month before the presidential election.
