The House is speeding toward a Thursday vote on a $1.1 trillion package to prevent a government shutdown.
Defections in both parties are expected on the vote, which has been scheduled on the same day the current bill funding the government is set to expire.
{mosads}The legislation, known as the “cromnibus,” would fund most of the government through September, but would only fund the Department of Homeland Security through Feb. 27.
The short-term funding for Homeland Security is intended to win over Republicans who want to defund the agency to respond to President Obama’s executive actions granting legal status to up to 5 million illegal immigrants.
Many conservatives are expected to oppose the package because they don’t think it goes far enough.
A number of liberals, separately, are warning they’ll vote “no” — mostly because the bill includes last-minute changes to the Wall Street reform law.
