The U.S. House of Representatives will try to end the longest government shutdown in U.S. history on Wednesday, with a vote on a stopgap funding package to restart disrupted food assistance, pay hundreds of thousands of federal workers, and revive a hobbled air-traffic control system.

The House voted to fund the government through the end of January, bringing the country one step closer to ending the shutdown that has dragged on for six weeks. The bill now goes to President Trump for his signature.
