Even as Congressional leaders announced a deal .....NCBA Vice President of Government Affairs, Ethan Lane said the industry is watching D.C.
Congress is racing to greenlight a short-term spending bill and avoid a government shutdown ahead of a winter storm that is set to hit Washington and parts of the Northeast and Midwest. Government funding is set to expire at midnight on the end of Friday, but the looming weather is pushing lawmakers to wrap up…
Both the Senate and House approved a six-week stopgap on Thursday, just one day before a shutdown deadline.
The Senate advanced another short-term spending bill Thursday afternoon, which passed 77-18 over objections from conservatives.
Congress passed a third stopgap funding bill as it races to pass a full FY24 defense budget to avoid a year-long CR that would disrupt Pentagon operation.
