The House Prepares to Vote On Bill to End the Government Shutdown

from WSJ What’s News · host The Wall Street Journal

P.M. Edition for Nov. 12. The House of Representatives is set to vote this evening on a spending bill that would end the longest government shutdown in U.S. history. WSJ reporter Anvee Bhutani walks us through what’s in the bill. Plus, Federal Reserve officials are divided as to whether it’s inflation or the labor market that is the bigger threat to the U.S. economy, stoking division ahead of the Fed’s December meeting. Journal chief economics correspondent Nick Timiraos explains what the disagreements mean for a possible rate cut. And the U.S. has minted its last pennies. Alex Ossola hosts.
