If the government doesn't get funded by October, it will shut down.
Republicans in the House have passed a bill that will fund all of the government at last year's levels, even including all the Democrats' pet projects from last year that Republicans (or at least conservatives) normally object to.
Deomcrats in the Senate have refused to pass that bill, or even vote on it, because it doesn't fund one new Dem pet project that wasn't part of the government last year, the ACA. But they are doing nothing to write a separate bill to fund that new pet project.
The more fanatical Democrats are insisting it's Republicans' fault that government isn't getting funded.
Can they get any sillier?
