Good grief[/quote]

I read on Reuters that they are planning to introduce the CR tomorrow.

It doesn’t seem like a good sign when the “knowledgeable source” says they still can’t agree on the form or the substance of such a measure.  [/quote]

At least they're willing to work on a Saturday? I assumed they'd be flying home per usual so that is slightly encouraging.  The bar is so low! [/quote]

this didn't make sense. the house adjourned thursday before noon until Monday the 13th. they aren't working.

I read another article and it said they plan to put it on the floor Tuesday so it will be published today due to the 72 hour rule.

PP here again and they are doing a two step CR, no cuts.[/quote]

Link please? I read Republicans are being briefed today but haven't seen any details. Thanks![/quote]

Sure:  https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/congress/house-republicans-unveil-plan-avert-government-shutdown-week-rcna124629

While I agree it's kinda gimmicky I don't see why folks are so against it.  If it was a clean CR until January people wouldn't care so this is a clean CR for some of govt until Jan and for the rest until Feb.  Realistically everyone has to deal with this sh*t again in January.[/quote]

Yeah, separating the deadlines by two weeks doesn't seem like a huge deal to me. Compared to the "laddered" idea going agency by agency, this doesn't seem horrendous. What am I missing?[/quote]

My guess is they will put favored agencies in the later batch and try to shutdown EPA, DOJ, HHS HUD etc by only funding them until January. Terrible approach to funding the govt[/quote]
