Episode description
Democratic leaders this week announced a bill that would fund federal agencies through the end of the year and suspend the debt limit through December 2022. The plan would avert a shutdown, but the debt limit aspects will face major Republican opposition in the Senate.
GovExec reporter Eric Katz is covering the negotiations around the continuing resolution. He joined the show to discuss the state of play as we approach a potential shutdown.
