How does the one trillion dollar stimulus fit in here?

Funding bill hits snag as shutdown deadline looms

A top Senate Republican on Wednesday said that Congress will likely need a stopgap bill amid a myriad of last-minute snags that are threatening quick passage of a mammoth spending bill to fund the government.

Congress has until Dec. 11 to pass an omnibus, which would wrap all 12 fiscal 2021 bills into one, but Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman Richard Shelby (R-Ala.) says he doesn’t think negotiators will make their deadline.

“Will we do it by the ninth? I’d like so but probably not. There’s some challenges that have got to be dealt with,” Shelby said, regarding the mammoth government funding deal. “That’s ticking away fast now.”

Shelby said Congress will need to make a decision on whether or not they need a continuing resolution (CR) by Dec. 9, so that they can pass it by Dec. 11. He added that a CR was “where we’re headed at the moment.”

So, somewhere just before Christmas all these politicians are going another round on the stimulus?  And try to fit that in before we start Q1 with the biggest tax battle of all time? 

We do not have time to sort out the earmarks which is why we want cash revenue sharing. No earmarks, no spending; the new rule.
