Spending bill passes house: 3 week supply

Nation
   House Passes 3 week spending bill 
Washington DC- The House passed a spending bill that will cut $56billion  and  supply enough money for the government  to run for 3 more weeks. This is the second time this month since the first spending bill ,that was passed, allows the government to run until Friday. This is buying more time while the Republicans and the President  hash out an agreement over the  by a 271-158 vote despite opposition from some tea party-backedconservatives who said it "kicks the can down the road" instead of imposing steep and immediate spending cuts.
