Make Congress Work Again

There are just 37 working days if you exclude Mondays and Fridays, and that is the norm in Congress.

If Congress does not act now, the obstruction will continue and Washington will continue the cycle of continuing resolutions to keep the lights on, while a handful of politicians get in a room and decide how to spend another trillion dollars.

Congress should immediately begin considering one or several consolidated funding bills.

This year, we are continuing that push, and our message is simple: It is time to make Congress work again.

Congress must do whatever is required to fund the federal government before the August break.

If necessary, it should work nights, weekends, and through the August recess to break through gridlock, confirm Trump's team, and start funding the government.

President Trump should never again face a binary choice of shutting down the government or signing a bad funding deal at the last possible minute.
