Schumer: Senate making progress on govt funding
United States Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said the Senate is “making good progress” toward reaching an agreement on a government funding bill. He assured Democratic lawmakers will support it and “work to pass it as quickly as possible.”
Schumer also criticized Republican senators for their perceived unwillingness to cooperate on the bill. “Our Republican colleagues can either work with us to move the process quickly through the chamber, or they can engage in obstructive tactics that will make a government shutdown almost a certainty. Sadly, this second option seems to be the path that a few on the other side are choosing,” he said, warning they could cause a “needless Republican government shutdown.”
