The 17th Amendment is a malignant tumor in America.

The House controls the power of the purse. This is about the House not using its power. The Senate was always intended to represent the elites, and the 17th Amendment has nothing to do with anything. If the Speaker had used his power and appropriated money properly, this wouldn't have happened, AND the spending bill expires in September. So, this doesn't fund the government through election day.
