The game strives to avoid government shutdowns and eliminate what might happen in the next few days…
Today’s latest wrinkle is that Democrats intend to release a version of their interim spending bill soon. When is the problem? A senior source said it was not possible until Friday.
house Now, a vote for the Republican “Cleaning” CR is expected to renew all funds at current levels until Friday’s November 21st. First, the house must pass the bill. It can be tough because Democrats believe all of their members will vote. It’s about math: Republicans can only lose two votes by their side and still pass a bill without the assistance of the aisle. But let’s just operate on the assumption that the House could approve the bill on Friday.
Then the measures are brought to the Senate.

Getting the final approval of the bill will require two rounds of “CLOTURE” to break the lawsuit. With this book, the process can take several days and will surely bleed until the weekend to make its first round.
But Senate Republicans want to participate Charlie Kirk Sunday funeral. Both sides are eager to blame each other for blowing up the temporary spending bill.

So, staring at the Crystal Ball – talking to senior sources on both sides – the following can happen in the Senate:
The Senate received an interim spending bill from the House Friday afternoon. Both sides abandoned all rules and clocks to have two “show” votes sometime Friday or Friday night.
Republicans will insist on voting to pass the motion that violates the House bill. That will take 60 years. There are 53 Senate Republicans. Fox was told Senator Rand PaulR-Ky. It is expected to be impossible in procedural voting.
That means eight Democrats must join the Republicans to vote to break the fillibuster to reach the 60-vote threshold. That won’t happen.

The Senate will then debate the Democrats’ plans to stay in a similar way. The Senate will vote at 60 thresholds. This will also be insufficient, as only 47 senators have held a caucus with Democrats.
This creates a deadlock.
“It’s nice to have a logjam early in the process,” said one senior. Senate Democrats Fox. “This shows that there is nothing to pass.”
The gambit allows both parties to make their own point of view and get the other side in the record.

This situation will prevent the Senate from having weekend meetings. Both the House and the Senate plan to withdraw from the meeting next week. Rosh Hashanah begins at sunset on Monday. But the House and Senate may return to the meeting after Rosh Hashanah (who fell Wednesday night) if necessary. The House and Senate must pass a Band-Aid bill at 11:59:59 pm ET on September 30 and send it to the president to avoid closures.
