The Choice: Cancel Christmas or Vote for the Leftist Budget. This bill is a Continuing Resolution (CR) that expires just before Christmas.  The U.S. national debt is now $36.7 trillion, and the deficit was $2 trillion in Fiscal Year 2024 so urgent action is needed to reign in Federal spending.  This Continuing Resolution pushes the budget fight into Christmas, purposely making it impossible to have proper consideration. CPAC opposed this resolution.  The House passed the resolution on September 25, 2024 by a vote of 341-82 and the resolution later became law.
