It is now 16 or 17 years since I saw the Queen of France, then the Dauphiness... and surely never lighted on this orb a more delightful vision, full of life and splendor and joy.

And don't call me - 'Shirley.'

Senate Democrats caved on the bill to keep the government open.
Why? I have 3 reasons:
1) He didn’t have the votes.
2) They didn’t want this fight.
3) If it shuts down, does it start up again?

This is terrific news for tens of thousands of federal employees who were unjustly fired by the Administration. And just this week, I introduced the Protect Our Probationary Employees Act so that these workers who are rehired don’t have to restart the clock on their probationary period.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.
Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.
Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.
