It's an inherently dysfunctional system where the legislative governing body:
1. Mandates spending by passing laws. 2. Demands the executive implement those laws. 3. Refuses to allocate money for the mandated spending. I've no solutions. Democracy ("Republic" for the pedants) 'Merica! |

Thank you, pedant. :) |
Shutdown averted, with minutes to spare.
I haven't seen media reports as to the exact provenance of the bill, not clear if it was HR3935 (minus the FAA language), or a new bill. Sounds like the house voted first, so that would be imply a new clean-slate bill, leaving HR3935 still on the back burner. The FAA was also funded, along with most of government, through mid-Nov. That's good, I'm doing some personal travel next week. |

Speaking of….Kevin just got the boot thanks to Matt. I’ve got some words….tsk tsk.
This is going to be fun to watch. We probably won't have a House speaker by the time this 45 day extension expires, much less a path to stop a government shutdown next time around. Welcome to total gridlock. |
