Hal Rogers is too old for this crap and just wants to get his work done as soon as possible. So he’s introduced another option: rescission. It’s fairly straightforward. Congress can pass the entire long-term omnibus this year and then, in the next Congress, pass a measure to retroactively rescind funds for carrying out the executive action. [...]
