I believe this bill will pass both Houses on time and be signed into law before the Friday deadline.
While I have never liked this way of doing things, this bill is now a critical MUST pass, as it contains the Electoral Count Reform Act.
Of course, just like any omnibus, it contains both stuff I approve and stuff I do not approve. Ironically, this half assed way of doing things forces a measure of bipartisanship so it is not entirely bad I suppose.
But I will unequivocally support this bill, if for no other reason, than to gain passage of the embedded Electoral Count Reform Act. Anything bad in the bill is more than outweighed by this critically needed legislation.
This isn’t how it’s done and the only reason this is being ramrodded is because it has corrupt spending in it. When ever you hear the name these turd politicians call it, know…it’s to sheoplize you and tell you what you want to hear but believe me…it’s filled with crap, fat and spending that is not what the title of the bill says it is…PERIOD!
Shutting down the government has always been reckless.
If you want to get spending bills passed in the regular order, the only way is to remove the 60 vote requirement in the Senate. Short of that, it is going to be omnibuses or nothing.
The funny part about this bill is there is more stuff for Republicans in it, but it will be passed by mostly Democrats. Mitch gets what he wants because the Democrats don’t want to have to deal with a government shutdown leading into the new Congress.
I can’t wait to see if those 13 republicans follow up on their threat to oppose anything a Republican Senator supports if they vote to pass this.
Doesnt this always happen. A last minute deal to avert armageddon.
I bet they have decided it days in advance over a beer but enjoy the play acting to look tough.
I really think when I retire I should run for congress. Its an easy gig. I would employ @SixFoot to post memes for me on social media to connect with “the kids”.
Omnibus is the dative plural case of a neuter Latin noun, not the nominative of a singular masculine noun, so the plural should not be omnibi but that form has probably has been accepted through misusage.
And that’s my extremely annoying “well ackhscually” comment for the day. Sorry.
