Suspending The Rules

A last-minute objection to the disaster aid deal reached between Democrats and President Donald Trump means it'll be back on the House's to-do list after the Memorial Day recess. Lawmakers will also resume the fight over humanitarian aid and wall funding for the southern border when they return.   On this episode of "Suspending the Rules" from Bloomberg Government, budget and appropriations reporter Jack Fitzpatrick previews Congress's remaining work on emergency and fiscal 2020 spending. Deputy news director Loren Duggan chimes in on how escalating tension between Trump and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi could affect action on drug pricing, enactment of the new NAFTA, and other areas of potential bipartisan agreement.  Contact the BGOV podcast team at BGOVpodcast@bgov.com. Listen and subscribe to Suspending the Rules from your mobile device: Via Apple Podcasts | Via Overcast | Via Stitcher | Via Spotify Hosts: Adam Schank, Sarah BabbageEngineer: Nico Anzalotta
