Top congressional negotiators said Thursday they had reached a deal in principle to approve $1.3 trillion in federal spending for 2020, probably averting a government shutdown next week.

The announcement, from House Appropriations Committee Chairman Nita M. Lowey (D-N.Y.) and Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman Richard C. Shelby (R-Ala.), came after Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin visited Capitol Hill midday to review a final list of sticking points.

“There’s a meeting of the minds,” Lowey said.

The tentative agreement sets the stage for a remarkable sequence of events next week in the House, with a presidential impeachment vote sandwiched between bipartisan deals on federal spending and North American trade. The House could vote on the spending bill as soon as Tuesday, with the Senate acting before the end of the week.

Phew, what a relief. I was really worried.

Probably a safe bet that the Democrats who voted Nay did so because there was not enough socialist spending.

Same caveat applies. This one had much more support among Democrats. AOC and Omar among the few Democrat Nay votes.
