This is how legislative sausage gets made.
The same conservative interests that oppose or wish to delay the IANA transition are also generally opposed to the existence of the Ex-Im Bank, so it's not clear if the proposed horse trade reported in the story will be accepted.

As there was much interest yesterday, I thought I would share this update from the Washington Post on negotiations regarding the US budget and their effect on the IANA transition: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/powerpost/wp/2016/09/20/senate-lea ders-say-they-are-close-to-deal-to-prevent-government-shutdown-provide -zika-funds/
FWIW, in my opinion the Post is more or less our "home town" newspaper and tends to have solid sourcing for articles like this.
