    The US Congress has approved the new bill that will help prevent yet another federal shutdown just hours before the previous funding commitment was set to run out.

    By passing the vote, Congress has also agreed to extend Government funding through to December 3.

    If the time had elapsed then federal-run museums, national parks and safety programmes would have been forced to close.

    Biden’s new bill passed the evenly split Senate by 65 votes to 35.

    In the House of Representatives, which holds a 16-seat majority in favour of the Biden’s Democrats, the bill passed by 254 votes to 175.
