Last night, lawmakers released the massive, 1,603-page, $1.1 trillion spending bill that will fund the government for the coming year.

Here are a few things Heritage experts have learned about the “cromnibus." The bill:

Funds most of the federal government through September 30, 2015 while extending funding for the Department of Homeland Security until February 27, 2015. 
Does not block funding for President Obama’s amnesty. 
Makes only minor tweaks to Obamacare, but leaves the big-government health program otherwise intact. 
Continues the education spending spree, and in fact increases spending on K-12 and higher education.

This is the bill the current Republican House is trying to pass.

If the repubs pass this, they can kiss their smelly Obamaholes goodbye.

They will be treated as liberals following the successful completion of CW-II.

And one will not want to be treated as a liberal then.
