According to FOX News host Harris Faulkner Republicans are working on Plan C to avoid a government shutdown. The plan will include three different parts.
Harris Faulkner: We’re making news now on that situation with the possible government shutdown.
Republicans now are strategizing in different ways to force lawmakers to pass a spending bill, a CR, Continuing Resolution, before tonight’s deadline.
Sources are telling Fox News, House Republican leaders are expected to present three bills. One, a clean funding CR. Two, disaster relief. You know how many storms we’ve had, hurricanes, so on and so fourth, and three, a farm aid. You know I’m a big component for that. I want there to be a farm czar when Trump gets into office.
And they want a handshake agreement on acting on the debt limit and spending cuts next year. They want to break out those emergency portions of that giant bill that came in from Democrats, that 1,500 plus page bill that got shrunk last night to 116 pages and still could not pass.
They want to break off the farm aid and the storm bill, basically the emergency funding for people, and have that passed separately. Put those priorities first. One Republican lawmaker also is telling Fox they will be on the Hill all night long. The deadline, 11:59:59, they’ll go beyond that to try to get this done.
The Gateway Pundit heard earlier the vote will be around midnight.
