How can we make a deal with Republicans if we cannot trust that the funds will be spent as directed? Congress has the power of the purse, not Donald Trump and not Russell Vought. Americans are counting on Senate Democrats to stand up for them and our Constitution and force a clean CR.

Today’s vote wasn’t about keeping government open. It was about Congressional Republicans handing over their power - the power of the purse - to the President. 

There is no separation of powers so long as Congressional Republicans continue to show unfettered fealty to Trump.

I voted NO.
