House and Senate Pass Another 1-day CR – HJ Res 110

This evening the House took up HJ Res 110, another one-day continuing resolution to continue funding the government through midnight tomorrow night. According to news reports (no official Senate records are yet available for today) the Senate subsequently took up the bill under their unanimous consent process and forwarded it to the President. As of this writing, there is no word on the President’s action on the CR.

The House and Senate leadership have apparently worked out a deal on both the final FY 2021 spending bill and a COVID-19 relief bill. The later will apparently be introduced and passed in the House tomorrow along with a 7-day CR to allow for a spending bill to be printed and then subsequently considered in the House and Senate. There is not yet a version of the legislation available for public view. We will probably see a Committee Print available tomorrow on the House Rules Committee web site.
