Watch live: President Trump signs bill to end government shutdown

The House of Representatives voted Wednesday to end the longest government shutdown in U.S. history, moving past a political mess that has lasted for 43 days and left millions of Americans unable to afford food and derailed travel. The measure now heads to the desk of President Donald Trump, whose expected signature around 9:45 p.m. will begin to resolve mass chaos across the country prompted by the crisis. After weeks without pay, hundreds of thousands of government workers will head back to work in the coming days. Under the terms of the funding package, they’ll be compensated retroactively even though they have not been on the job.
