House GOP tees up ‘woke week’ votes with spending bill in limbo

Published



The House is set to return to Capitol Hill on Tuesday with just two weeks before a scheduled government shutdown and virtually no progress on a spending deal to avoid it. 

Meanwhile, GOP leaders are focused on teeing up a number of messaging bills to combat “wokeness” in the federal government, with legislation such as the End Woke Higher Education Act and Protecting Americans’ Investments from Woke Policies Act. The House schedule indicates “an item related to government funding may be considered” at some point during the week, but it’s not clear whether Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) has made any progress since pulling his continuing resolution from the floor last week.
