The US Congress has passed a Bill to bring an end to the Government shutdown after 42 days.
The Republican-controlled chamber passed the Bill by 222 votes to 209 - it needed 215 "yea" votes in order to pass after the Senate gave it the go-ahead just days ago.
A total of six Democrats backed the Republican-led measure.
Applause rang out in the chamber after the vote went through - with Congresspeople seen hugging and smiling as the longest shutdown in US history came to an end.
