WASHINGTON(Sputnik) — The US government will run out of money unless Congress can agree on a spending bill by April 28.
"Nearly two-thirds of voters (65 percent) said lawmakers should take all necessary steps to avoid a government shutdown," the pollster stated. "[J]ust 17 percent said Congress should allow a temporary government shutdown if it helps them achieve their policy goals."
Congress can either pass a continuing resolution to maintain current funding levels, or pass appropriation bills to fund the government for the rest of fiscal year 2017.
