Summary
Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ilhan Omar insist Democrats should demand major concessions if they help Republicans avoid a government shutdown.
With a narrow three-seat majority, Republicans need Democratic votes to pass a spending bill, but progressives argue the GOP must “sort themselves out” first.
They oppose Republican efforts to slash corporate taxes and gut federal agencies.
Concerns remain that even if Democrats secure agreements, the Trump administration might ignore them. Some moderate Democrats agree that Republicans must take responsibility for funding the government.
They could refuse to cooperate instead of being complcit.
Problem is, government shutdown is what president Elon wants.
Not refusing to refuse is still being complicit. I find it hilarious that inside trading fucks blame progressives every chance they get.
