The Budget: Now that our MoCs have returned to Washington, they will have to pass a stopgap funding bill, known as a “CR” (Continuing Resolution), to fund the government past April 28. But with his 100-day report card looming on that same day, Trump is desperate for any legislative win he can get—so much so that his cronies in Congress may be willing to risk a government shutdown by including unpopular policy riders in the funding bill, such as:
-
Defunding of ACA subsidies that millions of Americans rely on
-
Defunding Planned Parenthood and other family planning initiatives
-
Additional funding for Trump’s mass deportation force, including his border wall, detention facilities, and more ICE agents
-
Restricting federal funding for cities that take up sanctuary policies
-
Defunding the EPA and other climate protection programs
CALL Rep. Faso and urge him not risk a shutdown and to oppose any policy riders in any Continuing Resolution.
