@cspanofficial: President Trump signed the government funding package into law on Wednesday night, officially ending the longest shutdown in American history after 43 days. The funding impasse broke over the weekend when a group of Senate Democrats struck a deal with Republicans, ensuring the 60 votes needed to advance a funding bill out of the upper chamber. The Senate passed the measure on Monday in a 60–40 vote, followed by the House on Wednesday night with a 222–209 vote. #governmentshutdown #trump #cspan
