House GOP Infighting Threatens Late-Night Spending Deal and Shutdown Avoidance

House Republicans are threatening to derail a late-night spending deal reached to avoid a government shutdown on September 30. Enough Republicans have announced their opposition to the deal, which would keep the government operational through October 31 and include spending cuts for federal agencies. The agreement also omits increased aid to Ukraine and includes provisions for border security. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy plans to hold a vote on Thursday, but he can only afford to lose four Republican votes and still pass the legislation. The infighting within the GOP highlights divisions over funding and investigations into the Biden administration.
