House GOP votes to punt government shutdown battle to after November midterms

House Republicans voted to postpone the government shutdown battle until after the November midterm elections, with Speaker Mike Johnson warning that Democrats would force another shutdown if given the chance.

The move comes as the Senate works on its own continuing resolution to keep the government funded beyond the current deadline.
