House Republican leadership is urging its members to oppose a stopgap funding bill to avoid a shutdown in Washington.
Minority Whip Steve Scalise (R-La.) sent a memo to House GOP offices Tuesday night recommending that members vote against the continuing resolution (CR), which would keep the government funded at last years fiscal levels until Dec. 16.
The measure also includes roughly $12.3 billion to aid Ukraine amid its conflict with Russia.
In its memo, GOP leadership encouraged members of the conference to vote no on the CR as a rebuke for Democrats allegedly not negotiating with Republicans on key issues, including inflation, the border and the opioid crisis.
