WASHINGTON — House Republicans on Saturday unveiled their stopgap funding bill to avert a government shutdown set to begin next weekend.
GOP hardliners had been pushing Johnson to include budget cuts as part of his two-tiered CR plan, a source involved in discussions told NBC News.
"My opposition to the clean CR just announced by the Speaker to the @HouseGOP cannot be overstated.
The laddered plan has the backing of Congress' most conservative members, including Republicans who normally never vote for stopgap bills.
"I want a clean CR," declared Connecticut Rep. Rosa DeLauro, the top Democrat on the Appropriations Committee.
