@pbsnews: Congressional leaders are scrambling to prevent a government shutdown after the House of Representatives failed to pass a stopgap funding bill Thursday with hours left before the deadline. Democrats and dozens of Republicans voted against President-elect Donald Trump's plan to fund federal operations and suspend the debt ceiling. This comes after Trump and billionaire Elon Musk, whom Trump has enlisted the help of in this transition to the White House, criticized the original bipartisan plan House Speaker Mike Johnson reached earlier this week. Johnson said the House is expected to vote again Friday morning on a measure to keep the government funded temporarily.

no pay over Christmas and most of January? I don't understand why Americans would not want the military being paid.
