Senator Thune criticizes Schumer's stance on potential government shutdown and urges support for a clean continuing resolution.
Quiver AI Summary
U.S. Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) addressed concerns about a potential government shutdown during a press conference, referencing comments made by Senate Democrats in previous years against shutdowns. Thune emphasized the need for a "clean continuing resolution" (CR) to fund the government until November 21, allowing time for appropriation bills.
Thune highlighted that during the Biden presidency, Democrats supported short-term CRs, suggesting that they should do the same now. He expressed hope that enough Democrats would unite with Republicans to prevent a government shutdown, cautioning against listening to "bad advice" from external groups.
The House plans to send its budget legislation later this week, and Thune reiterated the importance of bipartisan support for the legislation needed to ensure the government remains operational and funded appropriately.
