Week Ahead: Crunch time for Congress - TheHill.com
This could be the last week Congress meets until next year, and they have a lot of end-of-the-year deadlines to meet.
Funding for the government runs out on Friday. House and Senate conferees are working on an omnibus compromise package, which could be introduced as soon as Monday, setting up a House vote for Thursday, followed by a Senate vote.
Also on the agenda is the Republican proposal on the payroll tax-cut extension. The payroll tax expires at the end of the year and both sides agree on extending it but disagree on the details.
