The House of Representatives’ spending bill, the American Relief Act 2025, failed on Thursday to get a two-thirds majority vote.

The final vote total was 174-235, with one lawmaker voting present. A total of 38 Republicans voted against the bill.

A two-thirds majority vote was needed to suspend the rules to pass the bill without going through a committee.

The House of Representatives’ latest budget deal was to prevent a government shutdown on Friday. The original plan, a continuing resolution/omnibus bill, fell through on Wednesday as Republicans raised concerns about pork-filled spending.

The bill included a provision to extend the debt limit through January 2027, which was not in the original bipartisan version of the bill. It also includes about $110 billion in disaster relief funding. President-elect Donald Trump advocated for the new version.
