Possible agreement on unemployment extension

This is the only new information I found today.

"Sen. Judd Gregg of New Hampshire, the ranking Republican on the Senate Budget Committee, said he believes procedural differences holding up an extension of unemployment benefits will be resolved soon. He said a way to cover an extension without adding to the deficit has been determined, but he offered no specifics."

If the objection to passing this bill was truly do to the funding of the bill, we could see this pass quickly if this news story is accurate.
