House Approves Temporary Funding Bill, Maintaining Education Program Budgets

The U.S. House of Representatives passed a continuing resolution 370-48, extending federal funding through December 11, 2026, and preventing a government shutdown. This bill, already approved by the Senate, provides level funding for federal education programs, including the maximum Pell Grant at $7,395. It serves as a temporary measure until a final Fiscal Year 2027 appropriations package is enacted.
