OK, here we go.
In speaking with folks it appears to be that many do not understand what a continuing resolution is all about.
A CR as it is referred to is a temporary extension of the most recent budget. No more no less. During the Biden admin there were a total of 13 CRs. All other pluses and minuses are hammered out in the negotiations for the NEW full budget. Sometimes, more than one CR is needed to keep the government going, while discussions for the NEW full budget are ongoing.
What the dumba$$ Democrats are doing is trying to add stuff to the CR. That is not the vehicle for that. The CR is supposed to be "clean", just like all previous CRs. But, they do allow for operations to continue, employees to get paid, and items like SNAP funding to continue.
Let me take it a step further:
Wife gives husband $50/week to use for lunch. Hubby says he needs $75. Wife says OK, let's make that a CR at $50 for the next four weeks and we will sit down and discuss the family's budget and see if we can do it a higher amount. EZ PeeZee
