What’s in — and out of — the latest House funding bill

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) unveiled a proposal on Sunday to keep the government funded past a shutdown deadline next week, punting decisions about the fiscal 2025 budget until after the November election.

The continuing resolution, which would extend current spending levels until Dec. 20, is Johnson’s second attempt to pass a funding agreement after his initial proposal died on the House floor last week. That failed vote prompted House leaders to go back to the drawing board to craft a short-term extension that could pass with support from both sides of the aisle.
