House to consider another short-term spending bill
By Melanie Zanona - 01/11/18 01:56 PM EST

The House will consider another stopgap spending bill next week in order to avoid a government shutdown, Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) announced Thursday.

That would be the fourth temporary spending patch, or continuing resolution (CR), to come up for a vote since September. Current government funding runs out Jan. 19 at midnight.

“We’ve been in discussions to try to get a budget agreement. I hope that we can have that done this time. If we’re able to get that budget agreement, we’ll need some time for the appropriators to do their work,” McCarthy said while announcing the House floor schedule.

Ridiculous.  Shut it down!
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
