Will Congress Avert A Government Shutdown?
Manage episode 456158349 series 2896263
Ben argues why Congress' worst decisions are made when they're on tight deadlines to keep the government funded.
With multiple Republican members of Congress leaving to serve in the Trump administration, Speaker Mike Johnson will now have to manage an even narrower majority. In the long term, that involves passing President-elect Trump's agenda, but in the short term that means convincing Congress to agree upon a 1547-page spending bill to keep the government funded before they go home for holiday break.
