House of Representatives to Vote on Speaker Mike Johnson’s Two-Step Proposal to Fund Federal Agencies and Avert Government Shutdown

House Speaker Mike Johnson is set to face a major test on Tuesday as the House of Representatives votes on a two-step proposal to fund federal agencies and avert a government shutdown. Johnson will need the support of Democrats to pass the measure, as well as the backing of House Republicans who have shown reluctance to shut the government down. The outcome of the vote will be a major indicator of Johnson's ability to lead the House and work with both sides of the aisle.
