House GOP eyes stopgap into November to avert shutdown
House Republicans plan a temporary funding extension to maintain current spending until Nov. 20, aiming to prevent a shutdown and allow further negotiation on long-term bills.
- House Republicans plan to pass a short-term continuing resolution this week to avoid a government shutdown at 11:59 p.m. on September 30, 2025.
- Speaker Mike Johnson said the clean continuing resolution would provide short-gap funding to allow bipartisan negotiations to continue, but Democrats insist they will force a shutdown.
- Several Republicans including Victoria Spartz, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Warren Davidson, and Thomas Massie oppose the bill citing timing before Thanksgiving, lack of spending cuts, and limited rank-and-file consultation.
- President Trump urged Republicans to support a clean short-term funding bill warning, "Democrats want the Government to shut down," and stressed, "Republicans have to stick TOGETHER."
- If passed, the continuing resolution would extend current funding until around November 20 but likely require Senate Democrat support and leave healthcare subsidy disputes unresolved.
