Washington (CNN) The House of Representatives approved legislation Friday to fund and reopen the Interior Department, the Environmental Protection Agency and other federal agencies impacted by the partial government shutdown, though the measure is expected to be dead on arrival in the Senate and faces a White House veto threat.

The vote was 240-179, with 10 Republicans siding with Democrats.

The measure is part of a series of spending bills that House Democrats have advanced this week in an effort to put pressure on congressional Republicans and the White House as the shutdown continues.

On Friday, the shutdown reached a new milestone by stretching into its 21st day and matching the record for the longest government shutdown in US history, and for many of those federal employees work without pay or on furlough, today marks the first full paycheck they'll miss under the shutdown.

Moments after the funding vote, the House overwhelmingly passed a bill that guarantees backpay for federal workers who have been furloughed during the government shutdown. The vote was 411-7 and the measure now goes to President Donald Trump for his signature. The Senate passed the bill on a voice vote Thursday.
