美国众议院周一以370票对48票的表决结果通过了一项临时拨款法案,为联邦政府提供资金至12月11日,避免了原本可能在中期选举前几周发生的政府停摆。
这项持续决议使联邦机构得以按现有资金水平继续运作,同时国会议员继续就为10月1日开始的财政年度提供资金的十二项年度拨款法案进行谈判。这些法案目前无一完成,导致国会不得不依靠短期措施来避免资金中断。
该法案此前已在参议院获得通过,周一众议院表决后,现已提交特朗普总统签署。此次表决获得了广泛的两党支持,与近期预算之争中常见的强硬对峙形成鲜明对比:自特朗普第二任期开始以来,联邦政府已经历三次部分停摆,累计天数达到创纪录的161天。
对两党议员而言,在选举日临近之际避免第四次停摆被普遍视为一种政治上的必要之举。政府停摆会波及从联邦雇员薪水、国家公园到食品安全检查等方方面面,而选民往往会将责任归咎于看起来对僵局负有更大责任的一方。通过将这场争斗推迟到12月,两党都为自己争取到了可以不受停摆问题困扰进行竞选的空间——同时也为选举结束后立即出现新的资金悬崖埋下伏笔。
12月11日的最后期限意味着这场争斗并未结束,只是被推迟了。负责拨款的议员们将在中期选举结束后大约两周内,要么通过剩余的年度拨款法案,要么再次谈判达成临时协议,而这一次将不再有选举时间表来促成快速妥协。
对联邦雇员和政府机构而言,眼下最直接的影响是保持稳定:薪水照发,项目照常运转,至少到12月中旬之前运作上不会有任何变化。目前尚未解决的更大问题是:这项临时措施到期后将会发生什么。
