[US Senate to Vote on New Proposal to End Government Shutdown on Friday] 1. According to sources, Senate Majority Leader Andrew Thune informed Republican senators on Thursday that the Senate will vote on a new proposal aimed at ending the government shutdown on Friday. Republican leaders hope this move will give them momentum to reach an agreement. 2. This revised proposal combines short-term spending measures with three year-long appropriations bills covering the legislature, agriculture, military construction, and veterans' affairs. However, Democrats have made it clear that they do not support the proposal, emphasizing that the core requirement of extending Affordable Care Act subsidies must be included in any legislation. 3. The duration of the temporary measures is currently unclear (possibly until mid-December or January), and how to incorporate Affordable Care Act subsidies into the revised proposal remains a key point of contention between the two sides. This vote is scheduled to proceed against the backdrop of the continued expansion of the government shutdown's impact.
