The House of Representatives passed a continuing resolution funding the federal government through March next year, bringing Congress one step closer to averting a government shutdown. House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) had to rely heavily on Democrat votes to clear the two-thirds threshold to pass the measure under the suspension of the rules. The bill is a further stripped-down version of the continuing resolution that failed on the floor on Thursday, with around $100 billion in disaster relief attached to the government funding extensions.
President-elect Donald J. Trump had pressed lawmakers to include an extension of the debtlimit suspension into 2027. However, that portion of the legislation was removed to garner the support of Democrats. The debt ceiling fight, which could happen as soon as late January or early February, after Trump’s inauguration, will provide a significant point of leverage for the Democratic minority in the next Congress.
WALK BY FAITH, NOT BY SIGHT, ARMOR UP DAILY & PUT YOUR WHOLE TRUST IN GOD, NOT MAN!!!!!
Please Pray for President Trump, his family, America, my hubs, and me!
God Bless You and Your Families!
