House Republicans consider resolution to temporarily prevent federal shutdown

U.S. House Republicans are considering a continuing resolution to temporarily fund the federal government for another month and avoid a government shut down.

Rep. Scott Perry, R-Penn., said the House Freedom Caucus members have worked over the weekend with the Main Street Caucus “on a path forward to fund the government and secure America’s border.”

Perry is leading the bill along with Rep. Bryon Donalds, R-Fla., Rep. Dusty Johnson, R-S.D., Rep. Stephanie Bice, R-Okla., Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, and Rep. Kelly Armstrong, R-N.D.
