Reading a bit it seems the funding bill in its current form basically cuts their remaining healthcare and removes most congressional oversight on how money is actually spent, among other things.
If so then yea it's probably not better than a shutdown.

Republicans created a dilemma though, the bill legalizes and gives trump more power, not then of government is shut down, so are the courts.

Looks like we are fucked either way.
