Live updates: House votes to end historic shutdown, sending funding package to Trump

On November 13, 2025, the House of Representatives voted 222-209 to end a historic government shutdown, sending a funding package to President Trump for his signature. This vote, largely along party lines, signifies a critical moment in U.S. governance, as the shutdown had disrupted federal operations and services. The decision came after the swearing-in of Rep. Adelita Grijalva, who became the 218th signatory on a discharge petition, enabling the vote to proceed. Speaker Mike Johnson's leadership was pivotal in navigating the complexities of this situation, reflecting the ongoing partisan tensions within Congress. The resolution of the shutdown not only restores federal functions but also underscores the importance of bipartisan cooperation in addressing governmental challenges.
