Houses Passes Resolution with Possible Telehealth Extension for Medicare
The House of Representatives voted 217-213 to pass a continuing resolution that funds the government until Sept. 30, 2025, and extends expiring Medicare telehealth flexibilities until the same date.?The House voted mostly along party lines.
Shutdown - March 14, 2025
If a resolution is not passed, we face another potential government shutdown on Friday, March 14, 2025. The Senate still needs to debate and find 60 votes before a federal government shutdown is avoided.
The Hill: Senate Democrats leery of blocking GOP bill fear shutdown politics have changed.
According to The Hill Senate Democrats are leery of blocking a House Republican-drafted six-month government funding bill, fearing a government shutdown may backfire on them politically by giving Elon Musk and the Trump administration more leverage to force federal workers into retirement.
It is now in the hands of the Senate to act.

12 小时前These government shutdowns are absurd. Do you know how to prevent them entirely - change how federal government workers are paid back wages for the days of the shutdown. Imagine that - you’re off of work for some period of time and then you get paid back the lost wages. It’s like getting additional paid time off. If federal government workers were reimbursed like temporarily laid off employees in the vast majority of companies (meaning they are not reimbursed at all), they would be out en masse protesting the shutdown. Only politicians could have set up this system where the ONLY people who are hurt are the taxpayers paying the salaries.
