Another Day, Another Continuing Resolution
Acknowledging Congress will be in session for at least two weeks next month, House and Senate leaders are preparing a continuing resolution to last through Dec. 14, although extending that by another week is not out of the question given the heavy remaining workload.
That date will likely be included in the new CR Congress will take up next week to replace the current stopgap budget bill that runs through Nov. 16.
None of the 12 FY08 appropriations bills have been signed into law, and the $460 billion Pentagon funding bill might be among the only ones to become law before Congress adjourns for the Thanksgiving recess.
