Government shutdown ends after Congress passes funding bill

House vote at 5.30am narrowly passes bill to reopen government after funding ran out at midnight, prompting hours-long shutdown

The United States’ second shutdown in three weeks ended on Friday, after the president signed a nearly $400bn funding bill that narrowly passed Congress only a few hours before.
