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.
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.
A vote is expected to take place today at 5:30 p.m. EDT.
Floor debate is scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. EDT.
