The House and Senate are set to return to Capitol Hill on Tuesday as lawmakers scramble to avoid a government shutdown just four days before federal funding is scheduled to lapse.
Congress has until Sept. 30 to pass the budget for the next fiscal year, after which the government will run out of money and shut down until a deal is made. By then, lawmakers must advance 12 individual appropriations bills in each chamber before sending their final product to the president’s desk for approval, setting the stage for an arduous process as House Republicans and Senate Democrats disagree on overall spending numbers.
Lawmakers will vote to begin debate on four appropriations bills regarding defense, homeland, state and foreign operations, and agriculture.It’s not yet clear whether there is substantial support among House Republicans to advance appropriations bills this week, especially after Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene announced she was a “hard no” against the rules vote scheduled for Tuesday, citing her opposition to Ukraine aid in the bill.
This would come as welcome news to McCarthy, who can’t afford to lose many votes in this close majority. The House is currently looking at doing a 14 to 60-day continuing resolution, Graves said. The specifics of the continuing resolution are still being ironed out, but it is likely, regardless of what the continuing resolution looks like, that a number of House Republicans will vote against it.
