美国众议院批准政府预算案

发布时间：2017-05-05 编辑：查字典英语网小编

The U.S. House of Representatives has passed a budget bill to fund the government through September -- one without funding for the border wall President Donald Trump's promised during his campaign.

The $1.16 trillion spending bill passed with bipartisan support, 309 to 118. The bill now goes to the U.S. Senate, which is expected to approve it later this week before Trump signs it into law.

The spending bill averts a short-term crisis by authorizing federal spending through the end of the fiscal year, which is September 30. But it must be signed by the president by Friday to avoid a government shutdown.

Trump, after failing to win congressional approval for many of his spending and policy priorities for the next five months, said Tuesday the government "needs a good 'shutdown' in September" when lawmakers will be debating the 2018 funding plan.

美国众议院已经批准了维持政府运转到今年9月底的预算法案，这项法案没有为川普总统竞选期间承诺的修建美墨边境隔离墙提供资金。

这项总额1万1千6百亿美元的开支法案得到两党的支持，最终以309对118票的投票结果获得批准。该法案现在将送交美国参议院，参议院预计将在本周晚些时候批准这项法案，然后送交川普总统签署成为法律。

这项开支法案批准了至本财年结束前，也就是9月30日前的联邦开支，避免了一场短期危机。但是法案必须在本周五前得到总统签署，这样才能避免政府停摆。

川普总统今后五个月的很多开支计划和政策优先事项都未能赢得国会批准，他星期二表示，政府“今年9月需要好好停摆一次”。届时国会将就2018财年的开支计划进行辩论。
