House Passes Funding Extension Through December 4, Six Democrats Join Republicans

The House voted 220-205 on July 21 to extend government funding at current levels through December 4, with six Democrats joining all Republicans. Democratic leaders Hakeem Jeffries, Katherine Clark, and Pete Aguilar opposed the measure, saying it "fails to block funding for Donald Trump's violent mass deportation machine." The bill now heads to the Senate, where 60 votes are needed for passage.
