March 14, 20251 yr comment_27350123 Democrats are poised to filibuster the CR (govt spending/budget) that narrowly passed the house a couple days ago, however some centrist Dems like Schumer, Gillibrand, and Fetterman will vote for cloture which would allow Republicans to pass the bill with a simple majority assuming you're a democrat, do you support the bulk of the Senate dems dragging this out and causing a government shutdown ? Let's discuss below !

March 14, 20251 yr comment_27350277 Yes, the bill the GOP is trying to push through has SEVERAL cuts to important spending programs… what's the point of an opposition party if not to force them into proper negotiations? And the political fallout of the shutdown is always on the party in power.

March 14, 20251 yr comment_27350289 Not a Democrat but I fully support a shutdown. If this bill passes, it will have devastating consequences for millions of people and quickly. If they are the "opposition" party, start fighting now and don't wait until 2026 so you can start spamming emails asking for money.

Forever i'm with yall i just fear that the GP is so stupid and easily swayed by Trump's constant word salad that if it ends up being too prolonged / Senate dems aren't able to reach a compromise bill with Senate repubs and have to end up voting for the house bill it reflects poorly on them but overall i agree that it's too early in the administration for dems to just completely roll over and allow this awful spending bill through … would set a horrible precedent for the next 4(+) years Link to comment https://atrl.net/forums/topic/499999-do-you-support-the-potential-govt-shutdown/#findComment-27350319 Share on other sites Share on Bluesky Share on X Share on Facebook {lang="reddit_text" Share on Pinterest More sharing options...

If it were up to me, the filibuster would be gone, and the majority party would be allowed to govern as selected by the people, but it's here. Use it while you can. Democrats can't cry about fighting Trump when their actions are about to allow him to take a wrecking ball to services that people literally need to survive Link to comment https://atrl.net/forums/topic/499999-do-you-support-the-potential-govt-shutdown/#findComment-27350385 Share on other sites Share on Bluesky Share on X Share on Facebook {lang="reddit_text" Share on Pinterest More sharing options...

March 14, 20251 yr comment_27352328 It's so ******* frustrating how every single Republican falls in line and votes for fascism without question. But Democrats constantly have to concede to the same gaggle of clowns that are actually Republicans masking as Democrats such as Schumer. They put him in a leadership role too. Make it make sense.
