Watch live: House considers legislation on stopgap funding bill
House Republicans are racing to figure out a compromise to the latest budget standoff among factions within their party. Because of the infighting, any package will need at least some votes from Democrats to pass a three-month extension, further postponing a final budget agreement but preventing a shutdown.
Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) also vowed Tuesday that he would not approve an omnibus spending bill after the stopgap runs out.
A proposal put forward last week failed in part because it included language requiring proof of citizenship for voting, which Democrats consider a redundant obstacle for citizens.
Floor debate is scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. EDT, with a vote scheduled for later Wednesday.
The Senate is also expected to take up a vote on the legislation, which would fund the government at current levels through Dec. 20.
