But the CR opens an opportunity. ‘Whatever it takes. For as long as it takes.’

Speaker Johnson says this positions the GOP to win upcoming spending battles, but Democrats claim victory in extending their 2023 funding program for 75 days.

The effort is part a strategy to force the Senate to negotiate spending on favorable terms despite bipartisan passage of the Fiscal Responsibility Act in June.
