[U.S. Senate to Hold 13th Vote on Funding Bill to Prevent Government "Shutdown"] Odaily Planet Daily News - The U.S. Senate will hold its 13th vote on the "clean version" of the government funding bill passed by the House of Representatives. The bill aims to temporarily resume government operations at current funding levels. Previously, this procedural motion has been rejected 12 consecutive times in the Senate, as it requires at least 60 votes (including support from some Democratic senators) to pass. The 13th vote is also expected to fail. It is reported that several Senate Democrats have stated that unless President Trump personally participates in negotiations, it will be difficult to end the government shutdown. (Jin10)
