Suspending The Rules

House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy's (R-Calif.) proposal to spend $23.4 billion on a wall along the southern border represents a harder line for Republicans as midterm election campaigns go into overdrive. This week on "Suspending the Rules," Bloomberg Government budget appropriations reporter Jack Fitzpatrick dives into the bill and its ramifications for the fiscal 2019 spending fight that will resume in the lame duck. While Democrats are poised to gain seats, and possibly the majority, in the House, their prospects for the Senate are less clear. Bloomberg Government elections reporter Greg Giroux joins in the second segment to set the stage for Nov. 6 and share the bellwether races he'll be watching for on election night. Hosts: Adam M. Taylor and Danielle Parnass Engineer: Nicholas Anzalotta-Kynoch
