CBS Margaret Brennan Openly Ridiculed Kevin McCarthy for Suggesting Democrats Tried to Stop the Passing of Continuing Resolution: “Democrats Were the Ones Who Voted for This!”
On Saturday, the House of Representatives passed a last-minute bill to keep the government funded for an additional 45 days, narrowly averting a government shutdown that would have commenced today, October 1. The bill, spearheaded by House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.), was signed by Biden on the same day.
With a 335-91 vote, the House approved the temporary funding measure, which notably excludes $6 billion in funding for Ukraine. The bill does include provisions for disaster relief, a feature that likely swayed some Democrats to vote in favor. It should be noted that 90 GOP members voted against the measure, with only one Democrat voted no.
