Schumer warns GOP government funding proposals don’t have the votes to pass
Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (N.Y.) sent an explicit warning to Republican leaders Wednesday that the proposals they are considering to fund the government and avoid a shutdown on Oct. 1 do not have enough Democratic votes to pass the Senate.
“What the Republicans have proposed is not good enough to meet the needs of the American people and not good enough to get our votes,” Schumer told a group of reporters just off the Senate floor.

Jeffries suggests ‘clean’ CR is nonstarter for Dems
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) strongly suggested Wednesday that Democrats would oppose an extension of current government funding levels if Republicans go that route to avoid a shutdown.
Jeffries and House Democrats were fervently opposed to a Republican-only funding bill in March, warning it would undermine federal programs at the expense of low-income people.

GOP pressure is mounting on Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) to extend expiring Affordable Care Act tax credits, as a number of rank-and-file Republicans push leaders to prevent the popular subsidies from expiring at the end of the year.
Eleven GOP lawmakers have endorsed legislation extending the benefits for an additional year, punting the issue beyond the midterm elections. Most of them are vulnerable front-liners facing tough reelection contests — and wary of the ...

GOP, Democrats ramp up blame game ahead of shutdown deadline
Lawmakers are laying the groundwork for making sure the other party gets the blame in the event of a government shutdown at the end of the month.
As both sides work out a game plan for funding the government before a Sept. 30 deadline, lawmakers have increasingly been trading insults and pointing fingers over who would be at fault if the lights go out.
In remarks from the Senate floor Thursday, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) sounded the alarm over t...
Distrust clouds Democratic strategy amid shutdown battle with GOP
