Update on Possible Continuing Resolution 9-23-08

I ran across a brief article on GovExec.Com about a ‘discussion draft’ of a possible continuing resolution be circulated in the House. The resolution would continue the 2008 funding formulas through March 6, 2009. That would give the new Congress about a month and a half to get the 2009 budget passed. According to the article, which originally appeared in the National Journal”

 

  • “House Democratic leaders are looking to pass a continuing resolution that will fund the federal government until March 6, when a new president and Congress are installed rather than deal with President Bush, who has threatened to veto any appropriations bills that spend more than he has recommended.”

I have looked through the discussion draft and see nothing of specific interest to the chemical facility security community.
