Last Budget Update of the Day

The House passed a one week budget extension that would require $12 billion in additional cuts, but would have funded the Pentagon through the end of the fiscal year (September). The Dems in the Senate won't pass it and the White House issued a veto threat.

The Speaker and Senate Majority Leader met with the President again today and did not reach an agreement. The plan is for talks to resume at 7 pm.

I'll give you one more update in the morning before I leave to go to FLIGHT TO MARS!!!!!! Jennifer
