The US has narrowly avoided a government shutdown, after the Republican speaker of the House of Representatives turned to President Biden's Democratic Party for help in passing a temporary spending bill.

The measure still needs to be approved by the US Senate and signed by President Biden. {NOTE TO EDS: WATCH FOR DATING}
