@GottaLaff I'm no lawyer, but I recall in past govt closure threats, that a govt shutdown does not necessarily slowdown the courts. I wonder if the Dems have considered not voting for cloture, thereby forcing Thune to get rid of the filibuster altogether. GOP wins anyway. BUT if Dems narrowly win the Senate back...they can justify no filibusting and push through a LOT of important stuff. Dangerous gamble, but in some ways, what more can we lose??🤔🤷🏼‍♀️ #DemocratsInArray

Let’s hope so 🤞🏼

Via Prof. Angus Johnston:

"Our caucus is unified," says Schumer.

Team Fight has won the CR battle in the Senate Democratic caucus.

Semafor:

Schumer on Senate floor: "Funding the government should be a bipartisan effort, but Republicans chose a partisan path"

"Because of that Republicans do not have the votes in the Senate to invoke cloture on the House CR. Our caucus is unified" on the month-long CR #DemocratsInArray

And while they scurry around like chickens trying not to be chosen for dinner, we are coming together to save ourselves.
