GOP will not work with you. Say that, plan for it, build it into strategy, choose new leaders who understand. Then the next phase can begin. Not before.

The benefit is letting the house avoid voting to release Epstein files. Perhaps that's the motivation behind some of these mysteriously obtuse senators.

BAD deal cancels ACA 2020 subsidies. Yeah, we can debate ourselves for a month then hold a doomed vote, but in the meantime open enrollment continues without subsidies, locking in decisions and finances and opinions.

I thought that was the plan, no amendments only side deals, to keep the House out of it.

If there's no actual change to the house CR, the house doesn't have to come back until next year. Probably that's the GOP bottom line - puntable side deals only.

This isn't a real proposal just something intended to fail so they don't have to open a House session.

Well, they'd have to show a realistic plan and leadership for successful prosecution. We've been bitten before.

Someone with access should tell him this is how Obamacare works already. Before the GOP wises up and accepts the Senate Dems' overly generous offer.

Better talk to your Senator, who's proposing to accept the GOP House budget that cuts SNAP by about 30% starting January.

No way. Really? We have to force a modification and make the house revote. Otherwise there's no vote on the Epstein files this year.

The GOP House budget cuts SNAP significantly, too. It's not just about the shutdown, Dems need to hold out for real changes.
