Schumer Plans to Jam Johnson on Government Funding

“Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) is eyeing an end-of-year government funding plan centered on the goal of an omnibus spending package,” Axios reports.

“House Republicans want a short-term stopgap funding bill, setting up a clash between the two chambers.”

“Passing an omnibus bill is still contingent on leaders in the two chambers coming to an agreement on a top-line government funding number for the 2025 fiscal year. Republican control over the spending process in the next Congress will likely lead to discretionary spending cuts.”
