Weekend update

Congress remains in session on Capitol Hill this coming week. The continuing resolution funding the federal government runs out on Friday, March 23.  The Wall Street Journal is reporting that a leadership omnibus bill will be released tomorrow. The FEHBlog expects another continuing resolution rather than an omnibus appropriations bill this week. Here’s a link to the Week in Congress’s report on last week’s actions on Capitol Hill.

The week’s highlight is the OPM / AHIP FEHBP carrier conference in Arlington, Virginia. The FEHBlog was pleased to see that the new OPM Director Dr. Jeff Pon on the first day’s agenda. The day and half conference will be held on Thursday March 22 and Friday March 23.
