December 16, 2024: 2024’s last item on the to-do list

  • Summary

  • In just five days, lawmakers will leave D.C. for a two-week break, but a bill to fund the government is still pressing. With resistance mounting from GOP representatives in farm districts, House Speaker Mike Johnson may need Democratic support to get it over the finish line. Meanwhile, Republicans are also considering how to swiftly advance President-elect Donald Trump’s agenda next year. As Playbook co-author Rachael Bade reports, reconciliation was a key topic between Sen. John Thune and Trump at this weekend's Army-Navy game. Also, RFK Jr. is scheduled to meet with senators on the Hill this week. Notably absent from his calendar? A meeting with Sen. Mitch McConnell, a polio survivor. All that plus everything else you need to know today.
