Republican Rep. Anna Paulina Luna announced that the House is scheduled to vote at 10 a.m. ET, although she did not reveal specific details about the plan under consideration. Luna, a member of the Freedom Caucus, made these comments following a meeting with key House Republicans and Vice President-elect JD Vance. The discussions aimed to prevent a government shutdown set for midnight.
Luna emphasized that negotiations were being conducted internally without engaging in deal-making with Democrats. She expressed confidence in reaching a resolution to avoid a shutdown, stating, 'I do not believe the government is going to be shutting down.' Luna hinted at forthcoming developments, likening them to President Trump's recent proposals.
Her statements suggest a collaborative effort within the Republican Party to address the looming deadline and ensure the continuity of government operations. Luna's optimism and reference to past strategies indicate a strategic approach to resolving the current impasse.
