The House took the first step to implement the plan on Tuesday by voting to pass new legislation that will set up the debt limit process. The measure would next need to be taken up by the Senate. The new legislation, if advanced with 60 votes in the Senate, would create a temporary fast-track process to allow Senate Democrats to act on their own to increase the debt limit with 51 votes.
Moreover, there was criticism that the plan will be folded into a bill to stave off automatic cuts to Medicare, so voting against the plan could be characterized as a vote to impose steep cuts to the popular entitlement program."There's a lot of concern ... that 'no' is a bad vote and 'yes' is a bad vote," said Republican Sen. Kevin Cramer of North Dakota.
The more debt the US takes on, the more horrific the crash will be.
Same saga every year. How about resolving this more permanently so time can be focused on something critical
Now they can fund transgender surgeries for everyone!!!
Trumplicans
Now do voting rights. They won’t, though, because the GOP wants voter suppression. I’m starting to think TheDemocrats don’t mind it so much either.
So the republican party was willing to default when they were the reason why we approached the debt ceiling starting with Reagan followed by Bush Then the former guy who raised the debt 8 trillion in just 4years.
McConnell's learning curve is increasing.

The billion dollar question is if Sinema & Manchin will vote for it or hold it up like they have everything else so far
Pretty sure the Deal was to save trumps behind
The billion dollar question is will Sinema & Manchin vote for it? Those two love to create problems for attention, and to collect more donations from Big Pharma, Koch Bros, coal industry & the rest of their owners

Mitch has his head in the swamp t[ooooooo long
Now he's going to hear it from Trump (the Don) again. To hell with that!
Mitch needs to go
If Mitch cut a deal with the Democrats, we are really in trouble.
Where’s his wheelchair? This guy needs to retire.
Anyone thinking Mitch was doing the right thing here, NO, he’s not. He is very confident that they’ll win the Senate back next year and this sets them up to increase the debt without bipartisan vote & give more money to the top 1%. They’ll gut social programs including SSI.
This is such bs. They have to pass it! They have zero choice. Dems better start acting like McConnell and get shit done
So in other words the Republicans are setting up Dems to take the fall and will use this in future elections.
So, Republicans stampeded to run the debt up … and now stampede away from paying their bill. It’s like high school students at a restaurant with no money.
Pull the plug. CNN has no credibility. Don Lemon needs to be gone. Maybe a real non biased news station? News people reporting news.
Democrats are addicted to increasing the deficit...quite worrying.
The 1st dream of Qiyamah: I was talking to Allah while he was above his throne. Allah told me 'Qasim do all your work before 6 p.m. so I can establish Qiyamah'. I believe Muhammad Qasim is the awaited Imam Al-Mahdi.
This is how the democrats lose the mod terms. SpeakerPelosi
Mitch should have stated I cut a deal with the Dems to cover the debt ceiling caused by Donald Trump over the last 4 years plus not one member of the GOP was going to vote for it either.
Question here is will the two lame duck senators who hate there partys vote against it
