WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Proposed legislation would fund the federal government through Dec. 16 and includes energy permitting reforms but not other funds to boost domestic uranium supplies or the nation’s emergency oil reserve, according to a summary released on Tuesday ahead of an initial vote.
The summary released by U.S. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer’s office comes ahead of voting later on Tuesday as current funding to keep U.S. agencies running expired at midnight on Friday.
