10. "i am sorry but..I disagree.I dont want this to pass"

Oh it's not gonna pass in any quick fashion.

Even if the House passes it next month, it goes to the Senate where Thune could sit on it forever - at least until his constituents "cry uncle" and he starts accepting any "behind the scenes" negotiations, and compromises for some kind of extension. And if they do that (passing something that is different from the House version), then it has to go BACK to the House for a vote or Amendments... yadda yadda yadda.

And even if the House version DID pass the Senate (without Amendments), 45 would veto it, quick, fast, and in a hurry, and there would not be enough votes to override the veto.

What this does though, is to show the American public, WHO is on their side, and all the efforts the Democratic Party is going through to help.
