Yesterday, the House continued consideration of HR 4664, the Financial Services and General Government Appropriations Act, 2024. The last four amendments listed in Part B of H Rept 118-269 were considered and three were adopted. The House recessed for the Veterans Day weekend without taking a vote on the amended bill.
TheHill.com is reporting that the House leadership was not sure that it had enough votes to pass the bill because of some Republican concerns over abortion provisions and FBI funding. Earlier this week similar non-actions were seen with HR 4820, the FY 2024 THUD spending bill. The inability of the House leadership to see controversial spending bills passed is going to complicate efforts to keep the government funded passed the current spending deadline of November 17th, 2023, next Friday.
