A stopgap spending bill that would avert an Oct. 1 government shutdown fell short in the U.S. Senate on Friday, as Democrats withheld support for the legislation while demanding higher spending for healthcare.
The 44-48 vote, coming on the eve of a week-long congressional recess, raises the chances that federal agencies will shut down if a deal between Republicans and Democrats cannot be struck before current funding expires at midnight on Sept. 30.
This always happens. Dems will put up this false front for about a week then Schumer will cave like he always does
Damn, so they’re gonna let me down again
Thats their track record unfortunately. The old dems in there still believe its a fair fight
I was hoping they were over that delusion. Half of them voting to honor Kirk proves they are not.
