Conservatives across the spectrum came out in fierce opposition against the House spending bill on Tuesday. The continuing resolution was originally scheduled to be released days ago, but by noon, the actual contents of the spending package were still hidden from lawmakers, fueling concern that the vote will—once again—collide with their Friday deadline to avert a shutdown.
“The CR is coming together, bipartisan work is ongoing,” Johnson told CBS News. “We’re almost there.”
But party members have been less than thrilled by the developments. Missouri Representative Eric Burlison called the continuing resolution a “total dumpster fire” in an interview with C-SPAN.
Texas Representative Chip Roy rolled his eyes at the conundrum, telling C-SPAN that the “swamp is gonna swamp.”
“The conference itself owns this. The conference needs to decide whether we’re actually serious about spending.… We’re just fundamentally unserious about spending,” Roy continued, highlighting the fact that his party intends to shift cash away from Social Security, shrinking the time before the program goes bankrupt. “As long as you got a blank check, you can’t shrink government. If you can’t shrink government, you can’t live free.”
Representative Nancy Mace announced in a statement that she would not be supporting the “1,500 page Continuing Resolution”—which, again, has not yet been released.
