House Republican leaders are sending members home for the week amid deep divisions over funding the government ahead of the rapidly-approaching September 30 deadline, according to multiple GOP sources.
The most optimistic interpretation is that they’re getting off the floor so that deals can be struck “behind closed doors” and then hopefully come back with an actual solution.
The most likely reason is that representatives are lazy fucks who only actually work like 50 days out of the year
I’m under the impression they know they need several days to get the votes they need. (Hint: they aren’t going to get them in time and we’re going into shutdown mode)
The question I have is why are House members being sent home for the weekend?

I’m sure they’re doing fundraising the other 315 days
They have such hard lives. They deserve a long weekend, no?
