There is "widespread agreement" among leadership in both parties to pass an omnibus spending package next month, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., announced Tuesday.
His announcement was met with a string of criticisms from conservatives, calling to punt such decisions into next year, The Hill reported. Indeed, some have been calling for a punt to next year, with more leverage for Republicans.
"We had a really good meeting," McConnell told reporters nonetheless after meeting with President Joe Biden and other congressional leaders at the White House. "[We] laid out the challenges that we're all collectively facing here. I think there's widespread agreement that we'd be better off with an omnibus than a [continuing resolution], but there are some significant hurdles to get over to do that.
"For myself and I think the majority of my conference, defense and Ukraine" funding is "at the top of the list" of priorities.
McConnell met Tuesday with Biden, Schumer, and both House party leaders.
"We had a good discussion about funding the government," Schumer said following the meeting. "We all agreed that an omnibus would be better than a [continuing resolution].
But conservatives led by Sens. Rick Scott, R-Fla., Ted Cruz, R-Texas, and Mike Lee, R-Utah, have called for a stopgap that would last until 2023 and give Republicans more leverage once they control the House.
Scott published an op-ed Tuesday in the Washington Examiner, accusing GOP leadership of "caving" to Democrat spending demands.
"I ran for Senate leader because the current plan of routinely caving in and allowing Schumer and Biden to win must stop and because we must become a party with a plan to rescue America," Scott wrote.
"Everyone says compromise is crucial in Washington. That's fine. But it's about time we stop compromising our principles and start making the Democrats compromise theirs."
Earlier this year, the House Freedom Caucus and broader Republican Study Committee issued missives opposing a short-term spending package or omnibus deal.
RSC Chairman Jim Banks, R-Ind., put it in a memo in September, Rollcall reported: "Voters will have fired Speaker [Nancy] Pelosi, but she will still decide all government funding for" fiscal 2023.
