On November twelfth, the House of Representatives is set to vote on a deal that could end the government shutdown, ending a seven-week stalemate. The Senate amended the Houses original bill, incorporating full-year appropriations and extending funding until January thirtieth. The deal also includes a promise from Senate Republicans to allow a vote on expiring tax credits, crucial for healthcare subsidies.

Despite potential travel disruptions, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries expects all Democratic members to be present, setting the stage for future healthcare debates.
