Schumer says bipartisan talks to avoid shutdown before Christmas ‘on the right track’
The Hill ^ | 12/02/2024

Posted on 12/02/2024 6:37:32 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) on Monday indicated that bipartisan negotiations to avert the threat of a government shutdown this month are “on the right track,” but he warned against “divisive” provisions.

Schumer said from the Senate floor that both parties are “making progress negotiating on a bill that can pass the House and Senate with bipartisan support.”

“We need to keep divisive and unnecessary provisions out of any government funding extension, or else it will get harder to pass a [continuing resolution] in time,” he said. “For now, I’m pleased negotiations are on the right track, and I thank the appropriators in both chambers for their good work.”

They must give themselves permission to overspend like drunken sorority girls on spring break, for the 23rd year in a row.

It’s almost a certainty then that Democrats will push an untold number of unnecessary provisions into the mix and blame Republicans for not passing the bill when they balk at them.

Chuckie and the RINOs are trying to get an Omnibus bill passed that will lock in the budget for the next year, which will tie President Trump’s hands with getting the funding to achieve his agenda.

Let them make a deal until the end of January; then let the Republicans under Trump take over.

Any time bi-partisan is mentioned it’s usually not good for America.
