4 months ago·View on White House

Key Points

  • The President signed a law passed by Congress to keep several major government departments funded and running. This action prevents a shutdown for agencies that handle farming, veterans' benefits, and military construction.
  • This law ensures that veterans will continue to receive their healthcare and monthly benefits without any delays. It also keeps military building projects on track and maintains support for the nation's food and farming systems.
  • This is a temporary measure that extends current funding levels into the 2026 budget year. It gives lawmakers more time to agree on a permanent, long-term budget while making sure essential services stay open for the public.
