美國衆議院批准1.3萬億美元開支法案

The U.S. House of Representatives Thursday approved a $1.3 trillion spending bill, which advances the plan that could prevent a government shutdown.

The measure, approved by a 256-167 vote, now goes to the Senate, which has until midnight Friday night to approve it and avert the year's third government closure.

The House vote came hours after the nearly 2,200 page bill was released Wednesday night. Because the bill is most likely to be the last significant legislation passed this year, lawmakers scrambled to include their own spending proposals.

The massive bipartisan bill would keep the government funded until the end of September. The measure would fulfill U.S. President Donald Trump's vow to boost military funding while restricting much of his immigration agenda.

The bill, which the White House said Trump supports, would give Trump a huge budget increase for the military, including a 2.4 percent pay raise for military personnel.美國衆議院星期四批准了1.3萬億美元的開支法案，從而推動了會防止政府關門的計劃。

這項法案在衆議院以256對167票的表決結果獲得通過，現在送交參議院。參議院需要在星期五午夜前批准這項法案，以避免今年第三次政府關門。

衆議院投票前，這項近2200頁的法案在星期三晚間公佈於衆。因爲這項法案很可能是今年內通過的最重要的立法項目，議員們爭相在法案中加入他們自己的開支動議。

白宮表示，川普總統支持這項法案，法案將使川普總統得以大幅提高軍費，其中包括爲軍方人員加薪百分之2.4。
