"Here is the rough plan - what leaders are hoping for here: - That there is a deal over funding DHS short-term. - Then the Senate does a do-over - reconsiders the vote that just failed. - That would put the [--] spending bills on the Senate floor essentially. - Then there will need to be a pretty hefty uananimous agreement.
