Trump rejects bipartisan plan to prevent Christmas-time government shutdown

India Today  

President-elect Donald Trump on Wednesday disrupted bipartisan efforts to avert a government shutdown as he pressured his fellow Republicans in Congress to reject a stopgap bill to keep the government funded past the end of the week. Trump instead urged Congress to pass legislation that would tie up loose ends before he takes office next month by raising the government's borrowing authority - a politically difficult task - and extending government funding. It would be the first government shutdown since one that extended through December 2018 into 2019, during Trump's first four-year White House term. Trump said Congress should limit the bill to temporary spending and disaster relief and also raise the national debt ceiling now before it comes to a head next year.
