House Republicans on opposite sides of the conference are grimacing at the potential plan to kick government funding into the new year.
House Speaker Mike Johnson’s plan for a short-term bill to kick the government funding debate into early next year is getting a rocky reception from various corners of the House GOP. 'That's not my preference at all,' Rep. Ryan Zinke, R-Mont., President-elect Donald Trump’s former Interior secretary, told Fox News Digital.
Johnson told 'Fox News Sunday,' 'We’re running out of clock. Dec. 20 is the deadline. We’re still hopeful that we might be able to get that done, but if not, we’ll have a temporary measure, I think, that would go into the first part of next year and allow us the necessary time to get this done.
really have to read things before I say whether I'm going to vote on them or not,' Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., told Fox News Digital. 'I have never really voted for any CR, so it's hard for me to support in the first place.' House and Senate negotiators have done little bicameral work to fund the government for the current fiscal year. Instead, congressional leaders chose to extend the previous deadline of Sept. 30 through late December.
