“As it relates to the funding of government, February 18 is the current date of expiration for government funding. As the gentleman knows, we are not scheduled to be in that week, so next week would be the last week that the House is scheduled to be in session prior to that date. We haven't seen any agreement on a broader, long-term package. There has been some talk--we have been hearing there may be a short term CR brought forward next week. Does the gentleman know if there is any anticipation of a continuing resolution to be brought forward next week, and if so, is there a length of time that is being anticipated if that legislation were to come forward next week? Madam Speaker, I yield to the gentleman.”
