“We expect [Congress] to act and act swiftly,” the Biden administration said on Friday, but with no speaker, there’s no clear path forward.
The request follows Biden’s whirlwind trip to Israel on Wednesday and his speech from the Oval Office on Thursday, in which he attempted to tie the two conflicts together. “History has taught us that when terrorists don’t pay a price for their terror — when dictators don’t pay a price for their aggression — they cause more chaos and death and more destruction,” Biden said. “They keep going, and the costs of the threats to America and the world keep rising,” Biden added.
On Thursday, Republicans retreated from a proposal that would have temporarily given Speaker Pro Tempore Patrick McHenry the full powers of the speakership. “The world is watching, and the American people rightly expect their leaders to come together and deliver on these priorities,” Office of Management and Budget Director Shalanda Young wrote to Mchenry in a letter outlining the administration’s funding request.
