is that the 'tax cut bill'????..... its titled ""Making appropriations for military construction, the Department of Veterans Affairs, and related agencies for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2016, and for other purposes"" according to the link
You put another republican in and you get Thom Tillis adding more workers to compete with.
Dump the republican party.
Sorry, but no. These people are Republicans for a reason. They want someone to represent them, not another party. Its why I dont suggest voting Democrat. Libertarian is a great suggestion if they lean that way at all.
But generally people will vote for the party that represents their beliefs.
Course with virtually ALL of the Republicans voting for this, you might be right. Shrug.
The 3 who voted against this though? They may be keepers. Make note of them as well.
And yet, they cut the mental health budget, AGAIN! I think Obama wants mentally ill people to keep killing people so he can scream about gun control. It seems that every American who kills more than one person is mentally ill. With this new budget, states are going to have to cut a lot of people from receiving help. Go Obama! Words can't express how I feel about this man.

Wow. Just..wow.
you do know Obama has nothing to do with setting the budget right? And that the Republicans have the majorities in the House and Senate that passed this. And that the majority of Democrats voted against it....right?
one the tax cuts 680b, today...which we just saw the results
the other was the 1.1t spending bill voted tomorrow...
did I read things wrong??
edit...from you cnn link

Congress took the first step in clearing a package of government spending and tax bills Thursday when the House approved a $620 billion tax measure........The next step comes Friday when the House is set to vote on a $1.1 trillion bill to fund the government through September
You are a headline voter right. Why bother with the details, like spending bills originate in the House of Representatives, the move to the Senate. Which has not, yet. Yes, we really ought to consider limiting voting rights
