i'm veronica de la cruz. welcome to our viewers across the nation. including viewers in the pacific time zone. today we begin with running out of time. disaster victims depending on government aid may be left high and dry if lawmakers don't work settle their differences over a funding bill. today, the senate, which was supposed to be off this week, will vote on a measure to fund the government through november. tracie potts joins us live from washington with the details. good morning to you. >> veronica, good morning. what's at risk here is cash and things handed out immediately after disasters. fema only has $175 million left in that fund for all of the disasters its managing and that money could run out as early as tomorrow but it's tied to a big spending bill where there are big disagreements. one version was passed that provides money but does so by cutting clean energy programs that democrats say we need to keep. the senate has decided to extend its break. they were both supposed to be out with the loomi
