Watch: House votes on spending bill

The House is slated to vote on the revamped government spending bill Thursday evening.

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) initially proposed the continuing resolution Tuesday evening, but was met with opposition from lawmakers across the aisle and President-elect Trump and his close allies.

The vote is scheduled to begin at 6 p.m. local time while debate began in the 5 p.m. hour.

The plan B bill, released earlier Thursday, eliminated several measures and received the green light from Trump.
