The U.S. Senate will hold its sixth vote on the short-term funding bill on the 8th.

[The U.S. Senate will vote on a short-term funding bill for the sixth time on the 8th] On October 7th local time, according to U.S. Congress news, Senate Majority Leader and Republican Senator John Thune stated that the Senate will vote again on two short-term funding bills on the 8th, including the Republican version passed by the House and the Democratic alternative. Thune pointed out that the failure to vote that day was due to procedural order and scheduling issues. He revealed that some members of both parties had dinner that evening to discuss the progress of the government shutdown, but did not disclose further details. This will be the Senate's sixth attempt to pass a temporary spending bill to end the federal government shutdown, with the previous five attempts having failed. ( Jin10 )
