House Speaker Mike Johnson from Louisiana announced a plan to address the looming government shutdown. He intends to introduce a resolution next week to maintain current government funding levels until December 4. This move seeks to mitigate potential political risks for Republicans during the upcoming fall elections.
House Republican leaders revealed the proposed legislation on Friday. Their goal is to ensure the government remains operational past the September 30 deadline, even though completing all appropriations bills through the standard bipartisan procedure appears unlikely.
