It sounds like a bunch of Democrats want to cave in exchange for no concessions whatsoever. Edit: Bloomberg has more details
Current likely Democratic votes for this:
- Shaheen - NH
- Hassan - NH
- King - ME
- Fetterman - PA
- Peters - MI
- Durbin - IL
- Warner - VA
- Kaine - VA
- Ossoff- GA
- Warnock - GA
If you want to change things, you need to call their DC office NOW, and leave an email if you can’t.
Edit 2: enough Democrats joined the Republicans to reopen the government with no real concessions.
The list:
- Durbin
- Hassan
- King
- Cortez Masto
- Kaine
- Shaheen
- Rosen
- Fetterman
- Schumer
- Gillibrand
There was a caucus meeting right before this, so the bulk of the Senate Democrats were likely OK with giving in, even if not willing to vote for it in public
For those paying attention. It ended when the FAA started to ground private planes due to staffing shortages.
Those mega donors are the ones who pressured the vote. Not for the good of society. But because they started to get inconvenienced.
Even if your Democratic senator didn’t vote for this, call them up and call them out for allowing the spinless democrats to once again get fucked by Republicans for nothing.
But they are not the same trust me bro. It is not all performative politics with no real impact. Democrats will save us trust me bro. One more lawsuit bro. One more vote and we defeat facism I promise.
I can’t wait to see the form letter full of platitudes I receive in response from both of my senators about thsi

Where are you getting that information & why not cite primary sources? It’s on the senate website:
- Cortez Masto
- Durbin
- Fetterman
- Hassan
- Kaine
- Rosen
- Shaheen
Notably, Schumer voted no.
Schumer coordinated the Yes vote among Democrats
You also missed King
It wasn’t on the Senate website yet when I posted

Citation missing?
You also missed King
According to the website
King (I-ME)
King isn’t a Democrat.
wasn’t on the Senate website yet
Fair. Still, where did the other names come from?
Me looking at cspan screenshot during the vote.
And there is no way Schumer wasn’t coordinating this; he held a caucus meeting right beforehand, and the Yea votes were all Democrats who have 4+ years to their next election
cspan screenshot during the vote
From this Senate vote & video?

So…citation missing & speculation conflicting their no vote & statement in the CSPAN post?
While you clearly know how to edit a post, you still haven’t corrected it. Why are you doing this?
Those MAGA voters don’t care cuz they have ACA not obamacare so they’ll be fine…
The United States is the laughing stock of the world.
A new list of Dems to vote out with new lefties.
I emailed mine last week, begging them to hold the line. As usual, spineless fucking cowards.
Absolutely fucking pathetic
Every time I said they would buckle, I was downvoted. The Democratic party as an institute is not on our side, they use rhetoric to pacify us and prevent a full on revolution that’s well overdue.
Wow it’s almost like we know how they work and their brainwashed sycophants were conditioned to disagree with any criticism of their party.
The ratchet effect with a massively shifted Overton window as made telling the truth become violence to the state.
As I always say, they are the same party. The shutdown was just for show.
Fuck this shit pathetic
I can’t take this anymore. I’m fucking done. Fuck these traders. Fuck my fucking dumbass fucking neighbors. Fuck my fucking asshole family. Fuck all these people. Fuck New Hampshire with the biggest fucking dildo ever Fuck you New Hampshire Fuck you New Hampshire Fuck you New Hampshire

Really disappointed to see both my senators (GA) on here. Thank you for putting the link in your post, I’ll write them both now.
Call today. A letter won’t be fast enough.
Saw this coming from a mile away.
Well fuck me, I was 2 miles away and saw this coming
As I said before, both parties wanted to cut the programs and fire federal workers because their donors wanted it. They pretend to fight over this wile actually working hand in hand to take money from the poor and funnel it to the 1%. Now that the shutdown was starting to really bite it’s time to announce some “compromise”. People are still fired, programs are still cut and politicians will keep pretending to disagree over this.
