A bipartisan bill to avert a historic default has passed the Senate and now heads to the president. One of the key provisions in the bill is being questioned for what it actually achieves.

As part of spending negotiations between the White House and House Republicans, pandemic-era aid is getting pulled back. A document circulated by the White House shows what would be cut.

The leaders' breakthrough comes after weeks of negotiations and a series of on-and-off talks. The U.S. is set to run out of money to pay its loans on June 5 if a deal is not approved by Congress.
