On Wednesday, President Donald Trump sought to rally support for a continuing resolution (CR) to avert a partial shutdown of the federal government in less than two weeks, insisting that conservative lawmakers who tend to oppose stopgap bills will “love” this one.
“Government funding runs out next week, and Democrats are threatening to shut down the Government — But I am working with the GREAT House Republicans on a Continuing Resolution to fund the Government until September to give us some needed time to work on our Agenda,” Trump said in a post to Truth Social.
He added, “Conservatives will love this Bill, because it sets us up to cut Taxes and Spending in Reconciliation, all while effectively FREEZING Spending this year, and allowing us to continue our work to, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. VERY IMPORTANT — Let’s get this Bill done!”
