Senate can pass this but NONE of the funding bills.
That’s intentional of course.
To: ChicagoConservative27
Extend the funding levels set by Pelosi and Schumer?
Please No! Kill it!!
By the way, where the hell is McConnell? Did he die, or retire?

Aren’t all spending bills supposed to originate in the House? If so, seems this bill is illegal or unconstitutional.

Why, did you expect McConnell to act against the Uniparty or something?

Only 18 senators voted against it? Outrageous!

“Illegal” and “unconstitutional” are synonyms.

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) immediately moved to set up an afternoon vote in the House.I thought he said yesterday...NO WAY.

Sorry, due to inflation since the post we’ll have to see $21.10 for the old $20 bet. I know you were joking because wagering is illegal here, of course.

But I thought things got done efficiently and as promised whenever DC politicians are involved.
“They say the only things that stay the same are death and taxes. Death stays pretty much the same but taxes go up whenever Congress is in session.”

I have written my congresscritter to do just that, almost daily. I hope everyone else does that also. Keep the pressure up.

IF this bill is CONTINUING spending for another period of time-—ISN’T THAT STILL A SPENDING BILL ?????
I DO NOT SEE A “DIFFERENCE”.
To: ChicagoConservative27
Our Uniparty rulers think we are as stupid as we are. It's always a "continuing resolution".

It did originate in the House as H.R. 2872...went to the Senate and after minor revisions and a vote, it was sent BACK to the House for final vote.

All funding bills do originate in the House.
Bills from the House earlier this year dealing with funding may have died in the Senate, or gotten tabled without a vote. Then for moments like this they are brought forth and amended in a way that the original content disappears and the new content is the bill.
Perfectly normal.
