House Republicans over the weekend rolled out a short-term government funding plan, kicking off a crucial stretch for GOP leadership to lock down support ahead of Friday's shutdown deadline.
The plan released Saturday seeks to keep the government funded through September at mostly fiscal year 2024 levels, in lieu of a bipartisan agreement to pass full-year spending bills.
The strategy, which has been backed by President Trump, has drawn Democrats' ire.

Democrats Back Resolution Thanking Federal Agents For Handcuffing Alex Padilla

WASHINGTON—After he was forcibly removed from a press conference held in Los Angeles yesterday by Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, Democrats in the House of Representatives backed a resolution Friday that thanked federal agents for handcuffing Sen. Alex Padilla (D-CA). 'We express gratitude to law enforcement for bravely apprehending a sitting U.S. senator who expressed dissent in a public forum,' read the resolution, which won the support of 75 Democrats and praised both FBI and Secret Service agents for risking their lives to throw Padilla to the ground, handcuff him, and drag him outside. 'Every day, these brave officers stand in the line of fire to protect us from individuals who dare to exercise free speech. Thankfully, they were able to stop the senior senator from California before he could ask any difficult or probing questions on behalf of his constituents. We stand behind them, no matter which elected officials they may choose to assault, injure, or imprison.' Democrats also voted to give Noem a special commendation for bravely protecting authoritarianism in the face of danger.

Advertisement Forest Service retirees, among others, are organizing around opposition to the idea of lessening the service's role in wildfire suppression. But supporters of the effort say it could help the government better organize around fighting fires and appears to avoid confronting Congress about a wholesale reshuffling of agencies.

Trump ends Columbia River deal years in the making

President Donald Trump's decision to exit a major settlement agreement in the legal battle over Pacific Northwest hydropower facilities and their impacts on endangered fish populations — and upend efforts to breach several dams in the region — drew praise from GOP lawmakers, but environmental groups, state officials and Democrats on Capitol Hill vowed not to abandon the deal's ambitions. Trump signed a memorandum Thursday ordering his administration to withdraw from the $1 billion 'Resilient Columbia Basin Agreement' reached in late 2023 with the Nez Perce, Yakama, Warm Springs and Umatilla tribal nations, as well as the states of Oregon and Washington. 'It is essential to protect Americans' ability to take full advantage of our vast natural resources to ensure human flourishing across our country,' Trump wrote in the memo titled 'Stopping Radical Environmentalism to Generate Power for the Columbia River Basin.' Advertisement The legal agreement adopted by the Biden administration halted a long-running legal battle over 14 dams in the Pacific Northwest, putting the lawsuit on hold for up to a decade while the federal government and plaintiffs weighed options for boosting imperiled salmon and steelhead trout populations, potentially including the removal of some dams.
