Last night, the Senate struck a deal to speed up a vote on the House spending bill, which contains language that would defund Obamacare.

The Senate's expected to strike that language and send it back to the House for a vote before next Tuesday. That's when the government could shut down unless some action is taken.

For more on averting that crisis, we're joined now by Republican Congressman John Campbell, who represents the 45th district, which covers most of Irvine and he sits on the House Budget Committee.
