Failed to convince enough members of his party to back a stop gap measure that would fund federal agencies for another month, while Congress Worked on long term spending plans. This means at midnight eastern time on sunday, the Us Government will run out of money to fund itself unless congress can agree a last minute deal. The republicans, who hold a slim majority in the house of representatives, are in a deadlock, with members on the right of the party demanding wide ranging Spending Cuts. One of that groups main objections has been the white houses request for an additional 24 billion in aid to ukraine. Mr mccarthy urged the senate to drop that measure from its resolution. I think if we had a clean one without ukraine on it, we could probably be able to move that through.
