House Republicans unveiled a spending bill Saturday that would keep federal agencies funded through Sept. 30, pushing ahead with a go-it-alone strategy that seems certain to spark a major confrontation with Democrats over the contours of government spending.

Yesterday, the House passed legislation to fund the government through Sept. 30 and thereby avert a shutdown at the end of this week.
