YouTube Description
as posted by the channelCongress must pass a funding bill by November 17, or risk shutting down the government. Bloomberg TV spoke with lawmakers on both sides of the aisle about the potential for a deal.
Speaker Mike Johnson, the little-known Louisiana congressman who emerged from a hardliner revolt as House Republicans’ new leader, is short on both time and experience to avert a US government shutdown.
The novice to major Washington negotiations had planned to release as soon as Thursday his proposal for temporary government funding, but intense infighting among Republicans threatens to delay any spending plan.
The new speaker has barely a week before the shutdown deadline to make his opening gambit and choose how far to go in his demands to bolster his support among ultra-conservatives who ousted his predecessor, Kevin McCarthy.
