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.
216?

This is the one with DACA and no wall?
I notice that the saloon hooker/rodeo clown Frederica Wilson was too busy bashing Trump to bother to vote.
What is in it???
Did we have to pass it to find out???
DACA???
Chain immigration, unlimited?
HB1 visa increase???
So, the Democrats voted to shutdown the government.
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.”
And what RINOs voted no?
It’s my understanding this wasn’t the actual budget, but the budget blueprint, it’s still important as it sets a framework with spending limits the committees can not exceed in crafting the actual budget over the next month and 1/2.
In all likelihood this bill was more along the line of a continuing resolution. Calling it a budget is a real stretch.
I want to know which GOP reps voted against the bill.
I’m sick of Rats sticking together no matter what and our guys breaking ranks and voting with Rats.
And hopefully Paul Ryan didn’t sneak other items into the bill.
Unless I’m misreading the news stories on this, this passed because the budget left the local tax deductions in place. As predicted, there were enough Republicans in CA, IL, NY and NJ to torpedo that idea.
Whether that idea is permanently dead or not, I don’t know.
