That is enough to pass it.

Being from Virginia.

Durbin who is retiring and from a solid blue state has no reason other than to provide cover to others.

And it sickens me that we can't legitimately condemn those who repeatedly ratfuck us.

Jon Ossoff 202-224-3521

Gary Peters (202) 224-6221 is a No

Mark Kelly (202) 224-2235

Peter Welch 202-224-4242

Tammy Baldwin (202) 224-5653 - Probably No

A group of centrist Democrats led by Sens. Angus King (Maine), an independent who caucuses with Democrats, and Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.). and Maggie Hassan (D-N.H.), negotiated the deal to reopen government with Republicans on the Senate Appropriations Committee led by Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) and the Senate GOP leadership.

Collins led the negotiations on a minibus appropriations package to fund military construction, veterans affairs, the Department of Agriculture and the legislative branch as well as a continuing resolution to fund the government until Jan. 30.

Shaheen, a member of the Appropriations Committee, worked with Collins on the funding bills.

-snip-

Several Democrats emerged from the meeting, however, pledging to oppose the deal, including Sens. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.), Ruben Gallego (D-Ariz.), Tammy Baldwin (D-Wis.) and Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.).

“A wink and a nod to deal with this health care crisis later – with no actual guarantees – is just not enough for me or the Wisconsin families I work for,” Baldwin said in a statement.
