The measure aims to fund all government agencies through September 2015, except for the Department of Homeland Security, which would be extended only through late February, providing Republicans leverage over the agency implementing the Obama immigration order.

a sad tale of politique these days..

living hand to mouth, much as a majority of folks..

and to think, they have the power to change so much for the better..

but choose not to do it.

Remember folks. It is required that the bill be read on the floor before a bill can be voted on. If they don't do this (they seldom do), it is because they had unanimous consent not to do so. That means that every single republican congresscritter is voting for this monstrosity to be passed before it can even be read. All it takes is one to put a stop to this. If they don't then they are lying to you when they tell you they opposed it.

The only “work” I want to see Congress doing — is to systematically dismantle the numerous extra-Constitutional Federal bureaucracies.

Is this the 'plan' you had in mind? Funding Obamacare and Amnesty and all the other stuff?

Why is the current HoR and Senate - many members of which were sent packing - getting ANY vote on spending which happens after January? This is a very bad decision.
