From the NYT:

Senate Votes to End the Federal Shutdown

G.O.P. Immigration Pledge Wins Support From Democrats

By THE NEW YORK TIMES 59 minutes ago

The Senate voted to end the government shutdown, clearing the way for passage of a short-term spending package that would fund the government through Feb. 8.

The procedural vote does not immediately end the shutdown. The Senate must still grant final approval of the bill, and it must then be approved by the House.

Of course, the Democratic fallback strategy appears to be to try to drive a wedge between the GOP Senate dinosaurs and the more woke GOP House.
