House Speaker Mike Johnson says he wants to pass a short-term spending bill with no spending cuts to avoid the government shutdown that would take effect in less than two weeks. It's unclear if he has the votes.

The House Republicans’ coming stopgap spending bill extending last year’s government funding levels through the end of September will not include any savings the new Department of Government Efficiency says it has found in the first two months of the Trump administration.

U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson said on Sunday he hoped to pass a "clean" stopgap federal funding bill that would freeze funding at current levels to avert a partial government shutdown that could otherwise go into effect on March 15.
