Eric Cantor: House will vote on budget, Obamacare this week

House Majority Leader Eric Cantor announced Tuesday that the House would vote this week on a stopgap government spending bill, along with a provision that would force the Senate to consider whether the president’s signature health care law should be funded.

“We will send to the Senate the provision which says, ‘Up or down – are you for defunding Obamacare or not?’ The House has taken a stand numerous times. … It’s time for the Senate to stand up and tell their constituents where they stand on this atrocity of a law,” said Cantor, R-Va.
