"Balance of Power: Late Edition" focuses on the intersection of politics and global business. On today's show, Rep. Mike Flood, Republican of Nebraska, says a House vote could come as early as tonight to fund the government through May. Rep. Sean Casten, Democrat of Illinois, says the Rules Committee will "probably" send a stopgap bill to fund most of DHS through May to the floor tonight, but he is unsure it can pass the House. Holly Dagres, Senior Fellow in The Washington Institute’s Viterbi Program on Iran and US Policy and author of weekly newsletter “The Iranist,” expressed skepticism the Islamic Republic would concede its nuclear program, and the role of Israel in any potential US-Iran deal.
