The Senate will advance a bipartisan stopgap government funding bill on Thursday after efforts to pass a similar measure in the Republican-controlled House fell apart, Majority Leader Chuck Schumer announced.

Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer on Thursday set up a vote on a stopgap bill in his chamber following the failed attempt to pass a government funding patch out of the House.

The U.S. Senate will prepare stopgap spending bill that would avert a looming partial government shutdown, Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer said on Thursday, as House Republicans offered no hint as to what their next move would be.
