Congress strikes deal on $100B in disaster aid and punting funding into March, House GOP leaders say

Congressional leaders have struck a bipartisan deal to push the government funding deadline to March 14 and deliver more than $100 billion in emergency aid for disaster relief, House Republican leaders told their conference Tuesday morning.

The year-end package, which will be the last major legislation Congress clears this year, is expected to include a bill to restrict U.S. investment in China, extension of expiring health programs and $10 billion in economic assistance to farmers. The bill will also OK year-round and permanent E15 ethanol sales nationwide, according to four people familiar with the matter.
