Despite the sturm and drang about “funding the government before the deadline,” Congress punted, again, approving yet another interim spending bill.
Fox News senior congressional correspondent Chad Pergram breaks down Congress' missed omnibus bill deadline and Kevin McCarthy leveraging the bill to boost his bid for speaker on 'Fox Report.'
A big, complicated bill like the omnibus must be"engrossed" and"enrolled." Engrossment refers to the final version of legislation when passed by one body or other – but before it’s sent to the other chamber. In other words, the Senate passed the omnibus and then altered the legislation on the fly, adopting a host of amendments.

"The American people deserve us to be here over Christmas, actually fighting for them instead of trying to catch planes while half this body are going to vote by proxy," lectured Roy."They're lying on forms saying that they're voting by proxy for COVID and it's a lie. And half this body's going to do it."
