House Republicans May Get Jammed Again

“House Republicans have entered holiday recess resigned to the prospect of punting again on their spending priorities to avoid a government shutdown,” Axios reports.

“Fear has gripped some in the House GOP about getting jammed by the Senate on a massive omnibus spending package, raising the odds that the House chooses to instead extend former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) budget into 2025.”

“The first government shutdown deadline is just days after Congress returns in early January. Republicans have made little progress on appropriations since the last stopgap funding bill in November.”
