Heard From the Hill
December is often a slow time on Capitol Hill, as legislators leave for the Holidays and most legislation stalls. It’s a little different this year – not only are impeachment hearings happening most session days, but the government is not funded, the trade deal is still outstanding, and the defense authorization act has not yet been passed. With government funding expiring on December 20th, the rumor in the House is that there may be two small minibus bills (a minibus is several appropriations bills packaged together, as compared to an omnibus which is all appropriation bills packaged together). There have also been rumors that Trump will refuse to sign any bill until Homeland Security is passed (clearly tying his signature to money for the wall).
