House Republicans are once again at odds with one another over how to fund the federal government in the next fiscal year.
The fight to avoid a government shutdown is again bringing out the fault lines within the House GOP’s razor-thin majority. House Republican leaders sought to avoid another messy, drawn-out battle over federal funding this year by rolling out an ambitious schedule to pass all 12 individual appropriations bills before the annual August recess.
Many of the appropriators are not excited about seeing some of these amendments being voted on. So, they vote against the amendments, and they get upset with those people when they don't vote for the full appropriations bill, so everybody's mad,' one House Republican granted anonymity to speak freely told Fox News Digital. A second House Republican said, 'Most of them I do philosophically agree with, so it's not that it's tough. It's that they're unnecessary.
And on Tuesday evening, the Energy and Water appropriations bill was abruptly pulled from the House floor schedule amid worries about it passing. 'What we’re sick of is not passing the most conservative bills that we can get to be able to even start the negotiation,' Republican Study Committee Chair Kevin Hern, R-Okla., told Fox News Digital. 'What a lot of people are upset about is trying to find a bill and vote on it on the House side that will pass the Senate.
House Appropriations Chair Tom Cole, R-Okla., confirmed to reporters that a short-term bill would be necessary to avoid a partial government shutdown. 'I've always said we'd have to do a CR,' Cole said. 'And then whoever wins the election will make the decision, do you want a deal by the end of the year or do you want to kick them to the next Congress? I hope, my advice to whoever wins, would be do it by the end of the year.
