The House of Representatives has resumed its session today as Congress races towards the looming funding deadline set for Friday night. Several critical policy matters remain unresolved, notably concerning border security and aid to Ukraine, which are proving to be major sticking points for lawmakers.
There is uncertainty surrounding the possibility of reaching a deal before the deadline. One potential scenario is a short-term extension of government funding to avert a shutdown by the end of Friday. However, this outcome remains uncertain as Congress grapples with finding a resolution and faces criticism for repeatedly deferring long-term decisions.
