Politically this is a great move..

Democrats are boxed in.

Democrats want the chaos of the shutdown, but if Republicans piece meal the spending and force democrats to vote individually on things like this what are Democrats going to do?

They either vote for it, or vote it down and see their base go insane for not getting their food stamps and everyone will know they are why they aren’t getting them .

Good post. It makes me wonder if most of the GOP actually agrees with Rand Paul and doesn’t really want the CR to pass.

I agree, politically it is a good move. Make the Democrats vote against benefits for the needy
