Senate Democrats face tough decisions on funding cuts

independent.co.uk

Senate Democrats face a tough decision after House Republicans passed a spending bill with significant cuts to key programs. The bill reduces funding for the CURES Act and programs for Native American tribes, putting Democrats in a difficult position. Democrats must choose between opposing the bill and risking a government shutdown or supporting it despite its cuts. Some Democrats express frustration, while others suggest a temporary solution to negotiate further. The situation is complicated by Trump's influence over Republicans, making it harder for Democrats to find common ground. With the government funding deadline approaching, Democrats are left with limited options.
