Congress nears funding deal with more than $100 billion in disaster aid, avoiding government shutdown

^{Published on 2024-12-18 10:20:37 - PBS}

Congressional leaders have unveiled legislation that will keep the federal government funded through March 14 and provide more than $100 billion in emergency aid to help states and local communities recover from Hurricanes Helene and Milton and other natural disasters.

Congress is on the verge of passing a significant funding package that includes over $100 billion in disaster aid, aiming to avoid a government shutdown. This deal, which has garnered bipartisan support, encompasses emergency funding for various natural disasters like hurricanes, wildfires, and floods that have occurred across the United States. Additionally, the package addresses other critical issues such as bolstering national defense, supporting infrastructure, and providing aid for health emergencies. The agreement comes after weeks of negotiations, reflecting a compromise to meet urgent needs while navigating the political divide. This legislative effort not only seeks to provide immediate relief but also aims to strengthen disaster preparedness and response capabilities for future events.
