Meanwhile, Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.) warned Republicans that Democrats would not vote for any spending bill that did not emerge from a comprehensive bipartisan negotiation — suggesting that a bare-bones stopgap extending funding into January would be the only alternative.

Democrats are pushing for an agreement to increase domestic spending alongside the military funding hike Republicans seek, as well as an accord on legal status for hundreds of thousands of immigrants brought to the United States illegally as children.

“If we are not able to reach a global deal by this Friday on these many issues, there will be a temptation to do a short-term funding bill with some of these items, but not others,” Schumer said. “That won’t work. We should do all of these things together instead of a piecemeal, week-by-week fashion.”

No more stopgap CRs! Some states have already reported they are running out of CHIP funding by January.
Republicans are going to unravel! McConnell promised Collins something that will never pass the House among republicans alone.

i tweeted them this and tried to make them feel guilty. lol

@SenSchumer @NancyPelosi dont forget the #Dream7, they are risking everything. if they can risk their lives here, you can risk attaching the Dream Act as provision via the omnibus. you are letting the GOP walk all over Dem leadership.

They’ve been getting pummeled by the left in recent days. Every liberal organization is on their ass.

Schumer and Pelosi have not yet publicly said that they are not pursuing DACA fix this year!

Thank you, @SenBlumenthal, for committing to opposing any spending bill that doesn’t protect Dreamers! #NoDreamNoDeal

One more senator joins us
