Mike Johnson’s Funding Agenda in Trouble
Speaker Mike Johnson is grappling with fierce opposition as his funding proposal teeters on the brink of collapse. With multiple Republican dissenters, the six-month funding bill designed to avert a government shutdown faces an uphill battle.
Key Issues at Stake
- Funding Bill Details: The proposed bill extends funding until March 2025.
- Controversial SAVE Act: This measure aims to enforce stricter voter registration laws.
- Trump's Influence: Former President Trump has heightened concerns around election security.
Despite Johnson's commitment to proceed, the internal divisions within the GOP are proving to be a significant obstacle.
