This comes just hours before finding was set to expire, which would have affected millions of americans and their families. Theres lots to get to this hour. Lets bring in nbc news capitol hill correspondent ali vitali, and National Reporter sahill kapoor. And we actually heard Michael Bennett speak on the senate floor. What did he have to say . Thats exactly right. Because you will remember that just a few hours ago, we wondered if senator Michael Bennet of colorado would be the one to hold this whole thing up. And certainly, he did provide a hold for about an hour or so, over the idea that no ukraine funding was included in this continuing resolution.

Down 0. 1 on the nasdaq. The s p holding up a little bit better.

Its kind of a mixed picture on the nasdaq, too. Because costco and amd are helping on one side, but apple is weak again and amazon is under pressure as well. So is microsoft and tesla. Got a little dicey here in the last few moments. A few days away from a new month of trading.
