As GOP Becomes More Fractured, Hope is on the Horizon

Before leaving town for two weeks, Congress caused quite a stir. The House and Senate passed a $1.2 trillion spending package that funds six of twelve government agencies for an entire year. The first six agencies were funded in the bill – HR 4366 – that was passed the first week in March. Conservative Republicans were pushed to the breaking point by the fact that the package contained little more than Pelosi-era policies and they were given a mere 36 hours to read thousands of pages of legislative text before voting. Frustration at House Leadership was the natural reaction. However, the blame lies at least partially elsewhere.
