Day 40 and counting: the longest government shutdown in US history is finally showing signs of winding down. On Sunday night, the Senate voted to advance a bill that pairs a short-term funding measure with three full-year appropriations bills. 🎉
U.S. President Donald Trump reacted positively, saying 'it looks like we're getting very close' to ending the standoff. 🙌
The proposal now heads to the House of Representatives for approval before landing back on the president's desk for a signature. ✍️
Stay tuned as this historic funding fight nears its final hurdle! 🤞
