President Donald Trump’s Tuesday evening address to a joint session of Congress headlines another busy week at the Capitol — and don’t look now, but there are less than two weeks until the current government funding law expires.
Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., previewing the speech that does not officially qualify as a State of the Union message, said Sunday that, “in this case, it actually will be more like a State of the Union address, because President Trump has such a long series of victories, things that he has done, promises he has kept, and it is putting America back on a strong footing, and we can’t wait to welcome him back to the chamber.”
Johnson also confirmed that all signs are pointing toward a continuing resolution to extend funding for the balance of fiscal 2025.
