Senator John Thune discusses the need for bipartisan cooperation to fund the government through a short-term continuing resolution.
Quiver AI Summary
U.S. Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) addressed the Senate, emphasizing that Republicans are focused on passing a short-term continuing resolution (CR) to ensure government funding while allowing the Appropriations Committee to finalize bills. Thune accused Democrats of "seeming intent on shutting it down" over what he calls a "clean, nonpartisan funding measure."
Thune urged Democrats to collaborate with Republicans to support this funding resolution, arguing it would pave the way for a regular appropriations process. He criticized Democratic claims of a partisan CR, stating that the proposed resolution is a simple continuation of current funding and not a vehicle for new policies.
He concluded by stating that the choice lies with Democrats: they can either work together to pass the funding measure or risk a government shutdown, which he argues would not be well received by the public.
