Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, voiced feelings of betrayal, emphasizing the need for unity. They argued that Schumer's support could weaken their position against Republican policies. House Democratic leaders reiterated their opposition to the spending bill and proposed a four-week resolution to allow for further negotiations. They stressed the importance of presenting a united front to the public.
