its a Pelosi shutdown...senate has the votes, even without rand paul
but nasty nancy is caught red handed lying
Pelosi planned to vote against the bill, and despite initially STATED that she would not be urging fellow Democrats to follow her lead, that it is a "good bill".............but today she reneged on her statement and is pushing for democrat to not pass it BECAUSE OF DACA
At a closed-door evening meeting of House Democrats, Pelosi told lawmakers: “We have a moment. They (house republicans) don’t have the votes. All of us should use our leverage. This is what we believe in,” according to one House Democrat in the room
Who has the majority? The GOP. Just vote your party and dems can do nothing about it and you will own the results. Seems some of you are scared about owning the results.
And there you have it the Republican govt. (Paul Rand) shut down the govt.
Now what.
paul is allowing the vote which will pass the senate...they will vote around 1-2am.....
the house should vote around dawn..... questionable if it will pass the house.....conservative caucus(only about 36 extreme conservatives) doesn't like the spending...and the democrats don't like no daca.... if the house fails it, it will be because of the liberals that are more concerned about illegals than actual citizens

The Senate was waiting until 1 a.m. to take a procedural vote because Paul denied the unanimous consent needed to act sooner. The Senate then could pass the bill at about 2 a.m., and the House plans to follow sometime between 3 and 6 a.m., if not earlier.
Although Republicans have a 238 to 193 majority in the House, the Freedom Caucus, which numbers about three dozen Republicans, announced they would oppose the accord. That means Ryan and his allies likely will have to rely on support from some Democrats.
Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi, who emphasized her opposition with an unprecedented eight-hour address on the House floor Wednesday, said she won’t vote for the budget deal without a firm commitment from Ryan on immigration. Nonetheless, she called it “a good bill.”
“I’m pleased with the product, I’m not pleased with the process,” she said Thursday at a news conference. Asked whether she’s pressing House Democrats to vote against it, Pelosi said, “I’m just telling people why I’m voting the way I’m voting.”
The House Democratic leadership team sent a notice to members, obtained by Bloomberg News, saying that the deal fails to provide a path to legislation that would protect young undocumented people from deportation and urging them to vote against it.
