According to Bloomberg, the US Senate voted 62-38 to push forward the Republican spending bill, which essentially eliminates the risk of a government shutdown. The bill has no restrictions, allowing Elon Musk's government streamlining plan to proceed and maintain government operations until the end of the fiscal year on September 30th. The Senate will next review Trump's tax reform agenda, and the Democratic Party will not be able to balance this issue by obstructing the proceedings.
