Congress in early December passed a two-week stopgap bill that keeps the government running through this Friday. Lingering budget issues include disaster aid, children's health and the potential addition of subsidies for low-income people participating in ObamaCare. The House is expected to vote Tuesday and pass the measure without problems. The Senate vote slated to follow is less certain, considering Republicans need 51 votes with just a 52-48 majority. Mueller’s team is investigating whether Trump associates colluded with Moscow to influence the outcome of the 2016 White House race.
