House Republicans Will Pass Shutdown Bill on Their Own

“After a whopping 50 days out of session, Speaker Mike Johnson told members to begin traveling back to Washington Monday as he prepares for a Wednesday vote to reopen the government,” NOTUS reports.

“Right now, House GOP leadership is planning to rely exclusively on Republican votes to get the bill over the finish line… Especially after Sunday night, when Democrats in the House eviscerated the deal, and even Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries came out against it.”

Punchbowl News: “House Republican leaders haven’t started whipping on the funding bill yet. But with the tight margins – Johnson can only lose two votes – Democratic support would be a help for Johnson.”
