Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) told reporters.<\/p>\n<p>The bill also provides funding for U.S. Census measures, a military pay raise of 3.1 percent, and continues surveillance programs from December to March, <a href=\"https:\/\/thehill.com\/homenews\/senate\/471317-senate-approves-stopgap-bill-to-prevent-shutdown\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The Hill reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Senators voted down an amendment from Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) that would have enacted a 1 percent spending cut.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhether its our highways or our bridges or our waterways, our infrastructure in America is falling behind.
