U.S.-WASHINGTON, D.C.-STOPGAP BILL-FAIL
(230930) -- WASHINGTON, D.C., Sept. 30, 2023 (Xinhua) -- U.S. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy speaks to members of the media in the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C., the United States, Sept. 29, 2023. The Republican-led House of Representatives failed to approve a one-month stopgap funding bill on Friday, as a U.S. federal government shutdown after Saturday midnight appears increasingly inevitable.
All Democrats and 21 Republicans voted against the measure, in a vote of 232-198, marking a high-profile defeat for House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, who has been struggling to garner enough support for a funding plan in the slim Republican majority. (Photo by Aaron Schwartz/Xinhua)
