Sen. John McCain of Arizona, ranking Republican on the Senate Armed Services Committee, said Tuesday night that he opposed the consolidated bill. McCain said he wants a 45-day appropriations bill for the federal government rather than passing a single, massive bill thrown together in the waning days of the 111th Congress. A 45-day will would let the 112th Congress, where Republicans will control the House and have more votes in the Senate, shape government funding.
