President Joe Biden signed a funding package overnight on Thursday, keeping the government open through the new year.

The laddered continuing resolution, the first major legislative win for new House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), will fund military construction, veterans affairs, transportation, housing, energy, and other agencies through Jan. 19, with the remainder seeing their funding run out two weeks later.

WHITE HOUSE DOWNPLAYS DIPLOMATIC TREMORS CAUSED BY BIDEN'S DICTATOR COMMENT

The president had until recently not indicated whether he would sign the bill into law, telling reporters at the White House on Monday, "Let's see what's in it."

Though the bill does not meet Biden's funding requests for Ukraine and Israel aid, not to mention additional funding for the southern border and security assistance for Taiwan, it did keep government funding for the immediate future at current levels, without any cuts or policy riders Democrats would find objectionable.

The House approved the measure on Tuesday with near-unanimous support from Democrats and roughly half of Republicans. The Senate voted 87 to 11 to send the bill to Biden on Thursday night.

The president, who is in San Francisco for the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit and bilateral meetings with Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, had the bill couriered to San Francisco by a U.S. official, according to the White House, where he signed it into law just before midnight, pacific time.

"Last night, I signed a bill preventing a government shutdown. It's an important step, but we have more to do," Biden said in a statement Friday morning. "I urge Congress to address our national security and domestic needs — and House Republicans to stop wasting time on extreme bills and honor our bipartisan budget agreement."
