More than thirty Republicans in the House of Representatives voted against it on Friday account to prevent a partial government shutdown.
Lawmakers struggled to reach a consensus on the spending package ahead of Friday’s upcoming partial government shutdown deadline. An initial bipartisan 1,547-page deal that would have extended the government funding deadline to March 14 was released Tuesday night, but the proposal fell apart after Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy criticized the spending bill.
A condensed version supported by Trump was presented Thursday night, but he failed to pass.
In a final vote on Friday, the House managed to pass the funding bill — with 34 Republicans voting against the bill and zero Democrats voting against it. One Democrat, Rep. Jasmine Crockett of Texas, voted absent.

Among those voting against the bill was Rep. Tim Burchett, R-Tenn., who told Fox News Digital, “I don’t know why we’re giving Joe Biden $100 billion to play with in 30 days.”
“A little weird, he didn’t have what Trump wanted most,” Burchett said just minutes after voting against the bill.
