Explain it to me. What's the relevance of pointing out how fiscal hawks voted?
Yet, four Republicans, including Lindsey Graham of South Carolina and Mike Lee of Utah, opposed the bill.
Lee, a fiscal conservative, voted down each of the previous temporary spending bills. Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul also opposed the measure over budget concerns, saying the proposed measure would exceed spending caps Congress enacted in 2011 to keep expenses under control.
They were Republicans!!! They didn't like the bill either!

Irresponsible people send irresponsible senators to D. C.
Our constitution allows collecting taxes for only one reason. That is to provide the protection of OUR citizens. Illegals have no rights here. Our military should be first priority. Anyone not voting to keep the military funded is an irresponsible person. Anyone helping illegals stay here and encouraging them with any help is a traitor. The constitution says so.
I am talking about either political party or the president. Rid our country of these invaders and get the military people their checks. Start doing your jobs or go home or do as one C-Span caller suggested; if you are more interested in helping law breakers than you are in helping citizens, move to their country and do it there. We don't need you in government here.
Washington Post got it wrong according to the polls on City-Data. The polls on this forum go more in the direction of people I know. I think some national media are rigging the polls to say what they and not the citizens want. Maybe they polled the illegals. They don't count. Criminals don't get a vote.
Just goes to show how uninformed most Democrats are. The Democrats literally filibustered the CR! They are the only ones to blame.
They didn't filibuster it. They just voted against it. In fact some republicans did too. You blame the leader though...Trump. If he did his job and lead.... this could have been prevented.
