President Trump on Monday urged Republicans in Congress to unite in support of a “clean” continuing resolution that would avert a government shutdown at the end of the month.
“Congressional Republicans, including Leader John Thune and Speaker Mike Johnson, are working on a short term ‘CLEAN’ extension of Government Funding to stop Cryin’ Chuck Schumer from shutting down the Government,” Trump posted on Truth Social.
“In times like these, Republicans have to stick TOGETHER to fight back against the Radical Left Democrat demands, and vote ‘YES!’ on both Votes needed to pass a Clean CR this week out of the House of Representatives,” Trump added. “Democrats want the Government to shut down.

They should not get payed until Regular order returns.
Yet another Continuing Resolution.
Trump is drunk on CRs. Whenever government knows it can get what it wants via emergency decree, it will create emergencies in order to rule by decree.
Enough. Pass an actual real constitutional budget. Destroy the CR. It’s a vestige of Obamunism.
Not November 20th!!! This is a gift to government workers who will get the ENTIRE Thanksgiving week as paid vacation because the gubermint always pays its employees for time lost due to a shutdown.
