Congress Back. No Approps Action this week.

By November 29, 2023No Comments

Apparently, all that rest and relaxation in the long Thanksgiving break that new Speaker Mike Johnson gave his Republican Caucus to help them release their fits of anger and stop fighting each other, has not brought Members back to the “table” to get things done.

Jerry Hagstrom in The Hagstrom Report, “… neither chamber has scheduled action on appropriations bills this week.

“Congress is under pressure to pass an emergency supplemental appropriation to fund war aid for Israel and Ukraine plus some domestic priorities and fiscal year 2024 appropriations bills, or it will need to pass another continuing resolution to fund government agencies including the Agriculture Department in early January.”
