About this sermon
The U.S. Senate is edging closer to a government shutdown as a political standoff over federal funding continues. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer has stated that Democrats will not, at least for now, support the Republican-backed House bill that would fund the government through the end of September. Schumer had proposed a one-month extension to give lawmakers time to pass a full budget for the fiscal year, but Republicans opposed the short-term CR. With Republicans needing at least seven Democratic votes to pass their full-year CR, the necessary support is currently lacking. With no immediate resolution in sight, the risk of a government shutdown on Friday night remains high.
