[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People realize this was a CR right?

Meaning - the Dems wouldn't sign off on a CR.

The budgeted items passed prior to CR takes center stage whether CR passes or not.

In other words, the premiums are still going up whether the shutdown happened or not.  The only thing the Dems achieved is going on record to disagree with the CR.

I'm confused as to why shutting down (and it's not even 100% shutdown to add insult to injury because it's then working for no money for a lot of folks) was a good idea for such a short time?  Once 11/1 hits, the Republicans get their raised premiums no?[/quote]

It wasn't really a clean CR and by asking Dems to support it without concessions, the GOP is asking the Dems to support the BBB, which they had no hand in crafting, so no, if the GOP  wants to go it alone, then they can own 100% of it. And what is the purpose of supporting a CR or a budget when the White House simply ignores the funding and cuts whatever programs it wants despite the "will of the people"[/quote]
