It's time for a national walk out

[westwall]

They ar shopping tyranny. No Democratic points were in this bill.

No, you ridiculous clod....Trump ran on a platform. The MAJORITY of Americans VOTED for Trump to be elected to enact that platform.

DEMOCRACY!!!!!!!


It's YOU dumbasses that are anti democracy.

 

[IM2]

It's time for a national walk out. Everyone should not go to work until our representatives ( both republicans and Democrats ) sit down and compromise like they are suppose to do. Extremists have no place in government. They are the problem. If they're not willing to compromise and get government working again it is all over anyway.

They need to sit down, but Repubicans need to drop the provisions that created the problem. It is time we stopped both siding everything. Republicans are proposing things that will take away health insurance fr milions of people. That should be opposed by any means necessary.

I have no problem with snap benefits for those that are legitimately in need .. the Dems are despicable for using them as pawns !

Then people receiving SNAP benefits are getting what is necessary to feed their children and they shouldn't be double dipping by getting free breakfast and lunches in school. Hold these parents responsible or remove the children to homes where they are responsible. BTW, Schumer and Jefferies are holding them hostage to their unreasonable refusal to pass the CR. Republicans have NO responsibility for it.

that's the point I'm making .. the Dems are willing to let innocent children and the elderly go hungry because they want their radical base to see them as fighters apposing everything Trump was elected by the people to do .. its despicable ..

Republicans had a bill which passed the House. Senate democrats refused to vote on it. Looks like the only option left is to eliminate the filibuster to reopen the government.

LOL! WTF are you talking about?!? Your idea is pure goofball collectivist bullshit. If you want things to work, then STOP VOTING FOR DEMOCRATS!

 

[Captain Creeper]

There are extremists in the Democratic party but Schumer is not one of them.

WTF are you smoking?!?!

 

[MarathonMike]

You missed the whole point. Politicians on both sides are to blame for the current crisis. That's what happens when one extremist group meets another one. Nothing , not good for anyone ; they all need to go. Time to start over. No confidence in this government anymore. But let's keep attacking each other for all the good that will do.

Nope. Schumer wanted this shutdown to show that he and the Democrats still have power even it means the suffering of American poor people. Four Senate Democrats need to say ENOUGH IS ENOUGH and vote to end this completely manufactured "crisis".

 

[Stann]

It's impossible to compromise with people that oppose everything you say, no matter what it is.

"If Donald Trump suggested breathing air to sustain life, Democrats would all hold their breath" -- Senator John Kennedy

You're right , health care should be affordable and in place for everyone I the United States. There can be no co.promise on that.

 

[Stann]

Nope. Schumer wanted this shutdown to show that he and the Democrats still have power even it means the suffering of American poor people. Four Senate Democrats need to say ENOUGH IS ENOUGH and vote to end this completely manufactured "crisis".

The CR bill under Biden had bipartisan support because it was fair and just for ALL Americans. What's happening now with trump is anything but that.

 

[Robert W]

He is not an extremist , trump is however. Unwilling to compromise on anything plus willing to break the law in order to do so.

Trump has no role to play given he is not a democrat, but Schumer has a role and he is a democrat.

This is what Schumer shit his pants over.

 

[Concerned American]

The CR bill under Biden had bipartisan support because it was fair and just for ALL Americans. What's happening now with trump is anything but that.

It is a continuation of the same bill, why was it bipartisan then, but not now. I'll tell you. Schumer and Jefferies' temper tantrum.

 

[Robert W]

The CR bill under Biden had bipartisan support because it was fair and just for ALL Americans. What's happening now with trump is anything but that.

Yes, however when Schumer approved it, it was the same thing as what he now won't approve.

Read what Schumer won't approve.

 

[Stann]

Trump has no role to play given he is not a democrat, but Schumer has a role and he is a democrat.

This is what Schumer shit his pants over.

Oh you're so right , trump doesn't run what the Republican party does these days. What planet are you from ?

 

[blackhawk]

When the monthly bills come due then what? Pretty most employers won’t be paying you during that walkout and many will likely be looking to replace you.

 

[Rawley]

WTF , and here I thought the republicans had control of the Senate.

Loudly proclaiming your ignorance. Kudos!

September 17, 2025



On Tuesday, Sept. 16, the House Appropriations Committee majority released the Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act, 2026 open_in_new, also known as a continuing resolution (CR), to fund the federal government through Nov. 21, 2025. This legislation also proposes to extend mandatory funding for health programs.

Outlook​

If Congress does not pass a short-term continuing resolution or other funding vehicle, a government shutdown will occur on Oct. 1. In the Senate, passage will require a minimum of 60 votes. The situation remains highly fluid, and it is unclear if this bill will garner bipartisan support. ASTHO will continue to monitor developments closely and will send updated legislative alerts as needed.

Public Health Provisions​

In addition to extending federal funding through Nov. 21, 2025, the bill includes the following provisions relevant to state and territorial public health:

• Allows the Department of Agriculture to continue administering the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) during the CR.
• Provides additional funding for staffing and operations at Tribal health facilities opened in fiscal years 2025 and 2026.
• Provides HHS with authority to reinstate eligibility for Head Start programs in the Federated States of Micronesia and the Republic of the Marshall Islands.
• Extends mandatory funding for the Community Health Center Fund, the National Health Service Corps, and the Teaching Health Center Graduate Medical Education program through Nov. 21, 2025.
• Extends the Special Diabetes Program for Type I Diabetes and the Special Diabetes Program for Indians through Nov. 21, 2025.
• Extends some existing authorities related to emergency preparedness and response through Nov. 21, 2025.
• Allows the Federal Emergency Management Agency to obligate funds provided by the CR for the Disaster Relief Fund to respond to disasters.
• Extends the Sexual Risk Avoidance Education Program through Nov. 21, 2025.
• Extends the Personal Responsibility Education Program through Nov. 21, 2025.
• Extends funding for the Family-to-Family Health Information Centers Program through Nov. 21, 2025.
• Delays Medicaid disproportionate share hospital (DSH) allotment reductions until Nov. 21, 2025.

Republicans and democrats don't want a balanced budget.
Chances of that happening is slim to none, and slim just left the building.

The irresponsible supporting the irresponsible.

Schumer loved the same bill 13 times earlier.

It the same where you work.

If you walked out, no one will notice.
