Government Funding Passed, Future of Speaker McCarthy's Leadership at Stake
The GOP-led House narrowly avoided a government shutdown by passing a 45-day continuing resolution. However, this sets the stage for a battle over Speaker Kevin McCarthy's leadership. While the bill did not contain the spending cuts and border funding favored by conservatives, it did freeze new spending on Ukraine. McCarthy needed the 45 days to continue negotiations on spending cuts and the border. Although hardliners were ready to shut down the government, for now, that won't happen. The future remains uncertain, with McCarthy trying to leverage Democrat-controlled Senate and Joe Biden for big policy changes.
