Hours Away from Shutdown: Senate Prepares for Late‑Night Votes | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

The federal government is just hours away from a potential shutdown, scheduled to begin at 12:01 a.m. on Wednesday. The Senate is preparing for late-night votes on both a House-passed continuing resolution (CR) and a Democratic counterproposal, but neither is expected to pass. Republicans are pushing for a clean CR passed until November 21. Democrats, however, are demanding the restoration of healthcare cuts, including Medicaid and Obamacare subsidies. Political leaders on both sides are blaming each other for the impasse.
