The Senate is moving ahead with a bipartisan plan to keep the federal government funded through Dec. 11, extending funding beyond the midterm elections and seeking to avoid a shutdown after the current deadline expires Sept. 30. The Senate proposal largely maintains current spending levels while including targeted adjustments for nutrition, national security and disaster relief. It differs from a House-passed measure, setting up negotiations when the House returns later this month.
