Boehner: Clean Continuing Resolution Is ‘Not Going To Happen’

House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) said Monday that the House would not accept a “clean” continuing resolution to fund the government — a bill without language defunding or delaying Obamacare already passed by the Senate — making the prospect of a shutdown almost certain to transpire come midnight.

“That’s not going to happen,” Boehner told a reporter at a press conference on Capitol Hill.
