Schumer: House-passed border wall bill dead in the Senate

Senate Democratic Leader Charles Schumer (N.Y.) says a House-passed spending bill providing $5.7 billion for a border wall and border security is dead on arrival in the Senate, signaling rising odds of a partial government shutdown.

“The bill that’s on the floor of the House, everyone knows will not pass the Senate,” Schumer said moments before the House voted in support of the measure.

McConnell is on the hot seat. :-)

Chucky needs to sit back and quietly enjoy his minority position. We know that’s not possible, though. :(
