What all did they pass is the question
No body knows!
Not even themselves, they do this within hours, in the middle of the night, like thieves
If you really cared, it's online
@@MiracleMorris
Yeah, now you have all year to read a bill those who were passing it had hours to read.
1500 pages is such a travesty
@viralbull8085 all you had to do was look at the table of contents for summaries like I did. No excuses for not knowing for yourself
Stop spending money !!!!
You first.
I would but there this thing call
Food+(taxes)
Bills+(Taxes)
Rent+(Taxes)
Taxes+(Taxes)
President Musk and vice president Trump. What a joke this next 4 years will be.
I am disgusted about this!!!!
Why? Not ruining families Christmas ' by shutting down the parks etc
Oh my, well I hope the world doesn't stop spinning because of your feelings!!!
Are you going to cry?
The bills presented should be small enough that they can be read in before the vote.
Why do you think they keep doing this via a massive omnibus
Facts
part of the why reason bills are so incredibly long is that they have to close every loophole by being as specific as possible.
Raise for what you haven't balanced the budget in over 25 years. That means you're not doing your job. To worried about vacations and how to launder money from tax payers. Absolutely sickening.
I wonder if the raise for Congress stayed in the bill.
Nope
@@xcalibur1986 How do you know?
It didn't. There are only 3 items. Hurricane aid, Farmers aid and Government employees salaries.
Because it was all misinformation @@joesmith-vz1vx
They would have voted for it, if it where true
Isnt the government salaries the raise????
These people are fired . Americans , ACT - RIGHT
Right
She needs to define what was eliminated. Pediatric Cancer funds, etc.. How about agriculture??
We want Healthcare now
No we don't. These are the people who would administrate it. The government is not a savior.
No one is stopping you from seeing a doctor...
AGREED 👍 FREE FOR ALL!!! PERIOD!!! POINT BLANK!!!!!!! My Daughters healthcare from her job has a $2,500 deductible!!!!!! THAT IS ABSOLUTELY INSANE, INSANE!!!!!! 🙄🙈🤬🫵🏻🤬🫵🏻🤬🫵🏻🤬🫵🏻🤬🫵🏻🤬🫵🏻🤬🫵🏻😢😢😢😢😢
@@zxdrtyit's gonna get worse now unfortunately
Did these clowns put term limits in the bill?
And we on social security is getting 2.5 COLA. Ridiculous
And if you’re getting SNAP you just lost all that 2.5% in reduction.
this happens like 4 times a year and everyone acts shocked each time . this is professional wrestling tier
Only when Republicans control the house
Legal criminals we really need to rid ourselves with this faulty corrupt system
Agreed
Politicians shouldn’t get paid
How about a decent raise for senior citizens on a fixed inco
me
I have to live on 19,000 a year and 2,400 of that goes to medical insurance
And those sob need a raise for the very little they do
I am right there with you! And it’s extremely infuriating!!!🤬🫵🏻🤬🫵🏻🤬🫵🏻🤬🫵🏻🤬🫵🏻🤬
I’m sorry. You deserve so much more than either Republicans or Democrats are giving you. I am a young person who stands with seniors!!!
Who knew they wouldn't miss a vacation. 🙋♂️🙋♂️🙋♂️
They're on vacation even when they're in session
I don’t know why any of you are surprised , until we start getting majority congress members that are actually younger than under 65 and presidents that are under 65 , will citizens get what we want , I feel that as a senior citizens their only gonna be pushing for things that’ll help them in the end , we need people who actually can connect with us as citizens
I'm so disappointed, I was hoping for a shut down of this madness.
You want our service members to not get paychecks at Christmas time? Way to be in the holiday spirit Mr. Scrooge.
That's BS all those checks go out automatically @@marcilk7534
Congress should be disgusted when giving themselves pay raises
(Real Speaker) Hakeem Jefferies & Dems ❤
Thank You!
Hurricane Victims can finally receive additional help. Republicans, Elon Musk and DJT wanted a government shut down without raising the Debt Ceiling $5 Trillion!
Remember That
Congratulations on you all giving yourself raises!!!
They took that out lol
@TexRay72 Check your facts 🙄
Raises for government workers
Government salaries section covered staffing costs for the FAA, FBI, NASA, etc - not Congress. They actually seem to have done good with this bill guys. They knew the world was watching.
Huh?
WHATS IN THE BILL????
Not the funds for Children's Cancer I'll bet.
For real, garbage coverage by NBC
😢@@moyerk47
Congress gave them selves a raise with better healthcare and exempted themselves from Obama care. Which they are not allowed to do in the first place. They are to make laws for everyone, including themselves. They are too provided by them not exempt themselves from them. That’s in the constitution.
@@moyerk47 You are right. Also increased funding for the Pentagon. Freaking War mongers.
I’ve seen “government almost shuts down” so many times that’s at this point it doesn’t even have faze me anymore
