House abruptly cancels votes for the week without spending deal after series of defeats for GOP leaders
Fox News
House lawmakers will be told not to expect any more votes this week amid chaos over how to fund the government.
If not, lawmakers are likely to return on Tuesday at the earliest due to the Yom Kippur holiday, leaving less than a week for Congress to hash out a spending deal by Sept. 30. If no action is taken, the government risks falling into a partial shutdown.

Formally adjourning for the week would require a majority vote, but it's not clear that enough Republicans would agree to the measure for it to succeed. Follow on Twitter at @liz_elkind and send tips to elizabeth.elkind@fox.com
