House GOP plotting next steps on Obamacare, debt

House GOP leaders met Wednesday evening to discuss their next steps on a stopgap budget bill that would temporarily fund the government and avert a shutdown. The Senate is rewriting the House bill to restore money for the implementation of Obamacare, and is expected to send it back to the House, possibly as late as Monday, the day before the shutdown would occur without funding.
