Schumer and Jeffries are demanding a number of woke pet projects, including taxpayer funded healthcare for illegal aliens, be jammed through a new package to keep the government open.
“Radical Left Democrats are barreling the country toward a government shutdown if they don’t get their $1.5 trillion wish list of demands. The party of open borders, violent crime, and transgender for everybody is now jeopardizing military pay, critical care for veterans, firefighter pay, disaster relief funding, and many more programs on which Americans rely — while President Donald J. Trump and Republicans are committed to keeping the government open with a clean funding extension,” the White House argues.
Under President Biden, Democrats insisted we must keep the government open.

Now under President Trump they’re saying the opposite.
Last week every single House Democrat but one voted to SHUT DOWN the government.
