Debt limit hike bill could get U.S. Senate vote next week-Sen. Durbin

Democrats in the U.S. Senate are navigating toward a vote next week on a bill to raise Washington's borrowing authority and temporarily fund government agencies, No. 2 Senate Democrat Dick Durbin said on Wednesday.

Durbin, speaking to reporters, did not say what Senate Democrats would do next if Republicans, as expected, block that bill, which passed the House of Representatives late on Tuesday.
