The chances that the US government will suspend its work in early March are "50 to 50", CBS News said the Chairman of the House of Financial Services Committee on Financial Services Patrick McGenri, Republican from North Carolina.
At the same time, he said, the House of Representatives moves to the procedural "nuclear" war through financing of Ukraine.
Macgenri added that the large majority of Republicans and Democrats in the Lower House of Congress support the Senate's bill, which provides for military assistance to Kyiv, Israel and Taiwan.
"They support from 80 to 90% of what is contained in the bill ," the Republican said. "About two -thirds of the House of Representatives are given this opinion. It will be done. The question is just how it will be done and how much time it will take."
But according to McGenri, speaker Mike Johnson became an obstacle to this document.
"What is an axiom in the House of Representatives is that any speaker may interfere with the majority of the ward for a certain period of time, but not constantly," the politician said.
Macgenri at the same time expressed his hope that Johnson would look at this issue.
