At last, after what? EIGHT years?

I think this will help things too since it will present an aura of permanence and certainty.

Budget votes are generally party line votes. The fact that 20 Rs voted against the budget is disappointing.

Kevin Brady:
“On November 1, we will introduce our tax reform bill that will deliver more jobs, fairer taxes, and bigger paychecks to people across our country. Beginning on November 6, the Ways and Means Committee will consider this legislation in a committee markup. “

That’s quick work, will be good to see what they’ve agreed to already.
So tired of media spin.

We’re purging them as quickly as we can. Look at your own Speaker in TX!

Four of these people already said they won’t run again.

I notice that the saloon hooker/rodeo clown Frederica Wilson was too busy bashing Trump to bother to vote.

Np. It’s just the framework needed to advance to consideration of a real budget with real numbers. That will come Nov. 1.

Not that these birds can be trusted, but don’t kid yourself all of them were given permission to vote no. Nevertheless, I’m still never voting for Donovan. He was one of only 7 Republicans who got permission to vote no to stop sanctuary city funding. I know him personally and I know he would say “You know how I really feel but I had to vote that way.”

I thought they needed 218.

At any rate, once again Dem voters got their money's worth, unlike those that vote GOP.

no, that’s the resolution to keep the government open. Repukes are trying to do a pre-cave and negotiate against themselves.

A majority of the House is 218 but you only need a majority of those voting to pass it.

bmp. Agree. But LAME-STREAM-MEDIA will FLIP-FLOP this claiming Republicans voted to SHUTDOWN Government.

Those 20 stupid Republicans.

Three more numbskulls and it would have been defeated.

And no Dems voted for it.

Might as well send them home and stop paying them.
