WASHINGTON (NEXSTAR) – The House is expected to vote on a bill to avoid a government shutdown Tuesday.

The deadline is midnight Friday.

The bill is known as a continuing resolution which would keep the government funded through September 30.

It’s not clear whether it has the votes to pass.

“Hopefully we don’t have a government shutdown this week,” said Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa.).

Lawmakers are up against a Friday deadline to keep the government funded.

“We certainly do some things that are good in this bill,” said Sen. Tom Cole (R-Okla.).

Republicans are proposing a bill that would increase defense spending and cut some non-defense programs.

Oklahoma Congressman Tom Cole says it’s better than a shutdown.

“That’s going to be a lot worse than any particular item you may disagree with in this,” said Cole.

Democrats are expected to oppose the bill.

“It is a hurtful bill,” said Rep. Jim McGovern. (D-Mass.).

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) cited concerns over cuts to health care and assistance programs.

“It is not something we could ever support,” said Jeffries.

There are a few Republicans who have voiced concerns.

“I’ve got a lot of concerns about it,” said Rep. Tim Burchett (D-Tenn.).

Tennessee Congressman Tim Burchett says he’s concerned it includes too much spending.

“I’m concerned about the USAID funding, and I’m concerned about the uptick in funding for the Pentagon,” said Burchett.

Kentucky Congressman Thomas Massie posted on X, he’s a “no.”

Assuming everyone is present, and all Democrats vote against the bill Republicans can afford to lose only one vote.
