With just days to go before the government runs out of money, the Senate has unveiled a bipartisan stopgap bill in a bid to avert a shutdown – but there’s no guarantee that it will be able to pass in the House.
The Senate stopgap bill, which would keep the government funded until November 17, includes $6.2 billion in Ukraine aid and $6 billion for natural disasters.
The release of the Senate bill, which was negotiated on a bipartisan basis, sets up a stark contrast – and a showdown – with the House, where the Republican majority faces deep divisions and the demands of hardline conservatives have been highly influential in driving the agenda as a shutdown looms.
I think it’s that the hard liners would immediately kick Mccarthy and no one wants to deal with those assholes and run for majority leader. The majority is so slim that those assholes hold a lot of power. Republicans always fall in line. they can’t work with democrats. They would immediately be ostracized and lose reelection.
I can't remember the exact number but only 5 to 7 need to flip right?
Are there 5 -7 non crazy GOP house members who aren't up for re-election as they are stepping aside/down anyway?
