Rep. Nunes to CNN’s Dana Bash: House bill “likely be voted on tonight”

Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) to CNN chief congressional correspondent Dana Bash:  “This vote tonight is something that has support of Senate Republicans and Democrats.  This is something that we need 218 votes to pass, because the Democrats are going to give us no votes, because let’s face it, the Democrats like having this shutdown.  This is helping them politically. So we have to just wait and see if we can get the votes tonight.  And then Harry Reid is going to have a tough decision to make, because then it really will be Harry Reid’s default…

“I don’t know that we know that we have the bill — the votes or not.  But I think it would be — it would really show those who are Republicans and those across the country, those that came here to actually govern and make law and actually do something with their voting card versus people who just want to vote no.”
