March 15, 2018 Joe Krahn

March 15, 2018

Congressional leaders spent much of the week of March 12 attempting to put the final touches on a $1.2 trillion fiscal year 2018 omnibus appropriations package.  Faced with a March 23rd deadline to pass a new budget, the bicameral negotiations have been bogged down by partisan disagreements over a number of thorny issues.

DOJ Files Lawsuit Against State of California

Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced that the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) has filed a legal action challenging certain provisions of three California immigration laws.  According to the DOJ, the statutes in question (SB 54, AB 103, and AB 450) “intentionally obstruct and discriminate against the enforcement of federal immigration law.”  The Department is seeking both declaratory and injunctive relief in the Eastern District Court of California.

Federal Issues Update

March 1, 2018 Joe Krahn

March 1, 2018

After a short recess, Congress returned to the nation’s capital this week, although both chambers faced a light legislative agenda.  The House shortened its schedule to just two days following the death of Reverend Billy Graham, whose body was laid in honor in the Capitol Rotunda on Wednesday and Thursday.  Graham is the first religious leader and only the fourth private civilian – joining civil rights pioneer Rosa Parks and two Capitol Police officers killed while on duty – to have received this honor.

February 1, 2018 Joe Krahn

February 1, 2018

President Trump delivered his first State of the Union address to a joint session of Congress this past Tuesday, striking a conciliatory tone throughout much of the nearly 80-minute speech and signaling his willingness to work with members of both parties in the interest of advancing an agenda that protects American citizens of every background.

December 14, 2017 Joe Krahn

The special election in Alabama this week could have significant consequences for President Trump’s legislative agenda, but may not have much impact on federal tax reform. Democratic candidate Doug Jones defeated Republican Roy Moore and will soon represent Alabama in the U.S. Senate.

Federal Issues Update-Tax Reform and More

December 7, 2017 Joe Krahn

December 7, 2017

With just a handful of legislative days remaining on the 2017 calendar, House and Senate lawmakers spent the week of December 4 focused on several major unfinished items, including the fiscal year 2018 budget.  Currently funded by a stopgap Continuing Resolution (CR) that expires at midnight on December 8, federal agencies and the programs they operate must receive fresh spending authority from Congress to avoid a partial government shutdown.

The House continued this week its consideration of a catch-all fiscal year 2018 omnibus spending bill (HR 3354).

July 27, 2017 Joe Krahn

July 27, 2017

At press time, the Senate was continuing to debate proposals to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act (ACA), albeit with no clear legislative path in sight. Earlier in the week, the chamber voted 51-50 to begin consideration of health care legislation. Vice President Mike Pence was called upon to cast the deciding vote after Senators Susan Collins (R-ME) and Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) joined all Democrats in opposition to the motion to proceed.

July 20, 2017

House GOP Budget Committee leaders released earlier this week a $1.132 trillion fiscal year 2018 budget resolution.  The document sets the topline discretionary spending level for the upcoming fiscal year and potentially paves the way for a decade’s worth of cuts in taxes and entitlement spending via the budget reconciliation process.
