拜登签署《2025年美国纾困法》：联邦政府避免停摆、拨款延至明年3月14日
总统拜登12月21日在华盛顿签署众议院第10545号法案《2025年美国纾困法》（American Relief Act, 2025），使其成为第118-158号公法。联邦政府原定当晚到期的拨款得以延续，避免了圣诞节前的政府停摆。
该法为联邦机构提供2025财政年度拨款至2025年3月14日，维持政府现有项目与活动运转；同时拨付约1,000亿美元救灾款项与对农民的经济援助、延长2018年《农业改进法》，并为重建马里兰州巴尔的摩 Francis Scott Key 大桥提供资金。法案未纳入当选总统特朗普要求一并处理的债务上限条款。
法案在最后一刻过关：众议院12月20日晚以366票对34票通过，参议院在午夜过后不久以85票对11票批准，随即送交白宫。此前两党谈判一度破裂，特朗普曾要求共和党议员放弃先前的两党方案并加入暂停债务上限的内容，最终版本未采纳该要求。
拜登在签署声明中说，自己刚签署的两党拨款法案让政府保持开放，并把他为受灾社区请求的、急需的救灾援助送到位，也包括重建 Francis Scott Key 大桥所需的资金；他说，这项协议是一项妥协，意味着任何一方都没有得到想要的一切，但它拒绝了共和党所寻求的为亿万富翁减税的加速通道，并确保政府能以全部产能继续运转，这对美国民众是好消息，尤其是在家人团聚庆祝节日的时节。
Biden Signs American Relief Act, 2025: Shutdown Averted, Funding Extended to March 14
President Joe Biden signed H.R. 10545, the American Relief Act, 2025, into law in Washington on December 21, making it Public Law 118-158. Federal funding that had been set to expire that night was extended, averting a government shutdown just before Christmas.
The act provides fiscal year 2025 appropriations to federal agencies through March 14, 2025, keeping existing government projects and activities running. It also provides about $100 billion in disaster relief and economic assistance to farmers, extends the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018, and funds the rebuilding of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, Maryland. It does not include the debt limit provision that President-elect Donald Trump had demanded.
The bill cleared Congress at the last moment: the House passed it 366 to 34 on the evening of December 20, and the Senate approved it 85 to 11 shortly after midnight before sending it to the White House. An earlier bipartisan plan had collapsed after Trump urged Republican lawmakers to abandon it and to add a debt ceiling suspension, a demand the final version did not adopt.
In his signing statement, Biden said the bipartisan funding bill he had just signed keeps the government open and delivers the urgently needed disaster relief he had requested for recovering communities, as well as the funds needed to rebuild the Francis Scott Key Bridge. He said the agreement represents a compromise, meaning neither side got everything it wanted, but that it rejects the accelerated pathway to a tax cut for billionaires that Republicans sought and ensures the government can continue to operate at full capacity, which he called good news for the American people, especially as families gather to celebrate the holiday season.
