House Republicans have shifted gears as they race to avoid a government shutdown.

A three-month stopgap spending bill will extend 2024 funding into December while excluding tougher voter-eligibility rules demanded by former President Trump .

The timing of the bill’s release remains unclear, but congressional aides say they expect it to be released on Sunday .

Senators hope to get hold of a House -passed bill by Wednesday or Thursday of next week so they can push it across the Senate floor by Monday, Sept. 30 , when government funding is due to lapse.

Senators say they’re still waiting on the House to move first on a short-term government funding bill.

If Johnson can’t pass a funding measure through the House by Wednesday , the Senate would move without the House and send its own bill.
