The US House of Representatives will vote on a temporary funding bill next Tuesday, which requires a two-thirds majority.
According to media reports, the U.S. House of Representatives will vote on a stopgap funding bill next Tuesday.
This vote will use the "suspension of the rules" procedure, which means that the bill must obtain a two-thirds majority vote among the members present to pass.
This high-threshold voting procedure is typically used for legislative matters that are less controversial and have cross-party consensus.
This vote comes against the backdrop of expiring funding pressures facing the U.S. federal government. Federal appropriations for the current fiscal year expire on September 30, and if Congress fails to pass a new appropriations bill or a temporary continuing resolution before then, the federal government faces the risk of a partial shutdown.
Previously, the House of Representatives and the Senate had each pushed forward their own temporary funding proposals, aiming to extend the government funding period beyond the fall in order to avoid a government shutdown before a critical political juncture.
If the bill passes smoothly, it will provide the federal government with a necessary short-term funding buffer; if it fails to reach the two-thirds majority threshold, it may exacerbate market concerns about a government shutdown, thereby affecting short-term financial market sentiment.
