House and senate approved a 6 months budget and the president signed it.

It was not really a new budget - they could not agree on such one.

It is last years budget with a small increase (6 B$) in defense spending and a smal decrease (13 B$) in non-defense spending.

(6 B$ and 13 B$ may sound as a lot of money, but the total annual budget is 6.8 T$ so it is 0.1% and 02.%)
