Senator Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), chairman of the Democratic Policy Committee, said Tuesday the Senate would block any House-passed spending measure that included major policy riders.
Schumer said if House conservatives manage to defeat the pending bill, which does not include policy riders, a government shutdown would become more likely.
I hope and pray that there are enough votes to pass it in the House and I hope these folks with a conservative, ideological agenda dont try to bring down the government, he said.
