On September 30, 2023, federal funding was due to run out at midnight. Late that Saturday, hours before the deadline, Congress passed a 45-day funding bill, and President Biden signed it. The Senate vote was 88 to 9.
Earlier that year, the Treasury had projected that it could run out of money to pay the government’s bills on June 5. The Senate passed a debt-limit bill on June 1, and the President signed it on June 3.
The 45-day bill did not end the problem. It set a new deadline.
