It should be very clear to every Senate Democrat that any vote for Cloture will also be considered a vote for the bill.
People aren’t going to be tricked with procedural games.
They know exactly what is going on.

Vote NO on Cloture.
NO on bill.

One more thing: Punchbowl reports that some Democratic senators are considering allowing the CR to proceed to a floor vote, lowering the threshold from 60 to 51 votes. Any such vote is the same as a vote for the CR but with even less integrity. Please encourage your colleagues to be better than this

@blumenthal.senate.gov I called your office to tell you to vote NO on any budget resolution that doesn't rein in unconstitutional impoundment. A lawless president requires a real check from Congress, and a shutdown is the only cost Democrats can impose on him for his destruction of the Constitution.

Musk claims Social Security is a "gigantic magnet to attract illegal immigrants."
In fact, immigrants here illegally do not collect Social Security. But they pay $25.7 billion a year into it, a recent study found, so these undocumented workers are actually subsidizing Americans.

As federal research grants continue to be frozen, and NIH staff is being gutted, please note this study was funded by federal research grants, including from NIH. If they continue with staff cuts, and continue to freeze new awards, this is just one example of what we lose.
THIS IS HUGE! A cancer vaccine developed by Yale University and DFCI shows MAJOR promise. Results of an early-phase trial reveal ALL patients with ADVANCED stage kidney cancer had successful anti-cancer immune responses AND have remained CANCER-FREE approximately THREE years after treatment. 🧪🧵⬇️

@whitehouse.senate.gov are you kidding? RFK Jr has a long, atrocious track record of supporting dangerous positions on public health. He is as unfit to be HHS Sec as Hegseth is to be SecDef. Do not play coy on this: any hint of support is untenable.

C'mon @whitehouse.senate.gov. "Chill" is not a message for the moment. No I will not "chill" while you play coy "will he, won't he" about your vote to put a wild-eyed conspiracy crank in charge of our nation's health.
