The measure now moves to the Senate , where bipartisan support will be needed to get it over the finish line.

Democrats are concerned about the discretion the bill gives the Trump administration on spending decisions.

The bill would trim $13 billion in non-defense spending from the levels in the 2024 budget year and increase defense spending.

Democrats also introduced an alternative bill funding the government through April 11 .

The bill could serve as a Plan B if the GOP -led effort falters.

Both parties prepared to blame the other if the bill fails.

The spending bill could also have major ramifications for the District of Columbia’s government.
