WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The House Wednesday passed a $463.5 billion spending bill to keep the government operating past the Feb. 15 expiration date of the current continuing resolution.

The vote was 286-140.

Republicans complained, however, that the Democrats allowed no amendments and only limited debate on the bill; the Democrats argued that they were left to clean up the mess Republicans left last year when they failed to pass all the appropriations bills.

The House and Senate passed appropriations bills for the Defense and Homeland Security Departments last year, leaving the rest of the government's discretionary spending under a continuing resolution that held spending at 2006 levels.

The current bill includes $32.3 billion for veteran's health care, $6 billion for the FBI to fund new positions, $432 million for building new prisons and $13.6 billion to fund Pell Grants.

Amendments are likely, however, when the Senate takes up the bill next.
