The White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) is telling agencies to prepare for a lapse in federal funding ahead of a possible government shutdown as Congress attempts to pass a two-year budget deal.
"The Office of Management and Budget is currently preparing for a lapse in appropriations," an agency official said Thursday night, according to Reuters.
"As we stated earlier today, we support the Bipartisan Budget Act and urge Congress to send it to the President's desk without delay."
