Republicans are pushing
to lower spending and Democrats are pushing to increase spending.
Republicans have a 1
vote majority in the house. Democrats have a 1 vote majority in the Senate.
Democrats vote in a block. Republicans have contrarians on both sides. Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson is trying to avoid a shutdown and sent a deal to the Senate. Conservatives are not happy with the deal and want more time to read the bill and vote on amendments before it is sent to the Senate. The Senate has ignored all the Bills sent by the House.
The House approved a $1.2 trillion spending package sent by the Senate to avoid a government shut-down. Republicans are not happy because they didn’t get 72 hours to review the final Bill and didn’t get to remove “earmarks” to lower the cost. Republicans want to lower spending back to $4 trillion. Government is spending $6 trillion. Biden wants to take it to $8 trillion and keep the border open to count illegals to be included in the population count that determines the number of House members to increase Democrat control. Republicans want to count only US citizens in the population count.
