The House Is Ready to Pass an Expenditure Bill to Prevent Government Closure: NPR

Updated at 1:17 ET

House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., Expects Wednesday's House vote to pass a bill to keep the government open until early December – and he hopes that President Trump will sign it.

The legislation also provides for a full year of funding for the Departments of Defense, Labor and Health and Social Services and a short-term extension of the Violence Against Women Act, but no new funding for Trump. Ryan told reporters that he was certain the president would sign the bill because Trump told him he would.

"I'm convinced he's going to sign it," Ryan said. "It's funding our military, it's funding opioids, that's a lot of things we all want to do together, and we've had some really good conversations with the president."

September 20, however, Trump called the bill of spending "ridiculous" highlighting the lack of funding for border walls. "Genes obstruct law enforcement and border security, REPUBLICANS MUST FINALLY TOUCH!" his tweet said.

The Senate passed the bill earlier this month in a bipartisan majority vote of 93 to 7. The Democrats intend to join the Republicans to make sure the bill clarifies the House also has bipartite figures, despite the objections of many Conservatives in the House.

Rep. Mark Meadows, NS, chairman of conservative House Freedom Caucus, says he will vote against the bill on lack of funding for walls.

"I do not see where our leverage would be on December 7, December 7," Meadows said. "At some point you have to maintain and keep our campaign promises and at this point I do not see the benefits of this strategy."
