# After Resolving a Fight Over Farm Payments, House Passes Continuing Resolution | Farm Policy News | Illinois

> The House passed a stopgap continuing resolution 359-57 to extend federal funding through December 11, after leaders agreed to restore farm payment funding. The measure also restores pandemic-related nutrition assistance and includes language intended to bar CCC funds from being used for a Big Oil bailout.

## Why it matters

Restoring farm payment funding supports producer cash flow and avoids a government shutdown that could delay USDA data and programs. The direct effect on feed commodity prices is small.
