Tim recently interviewed Jared Moskowitz, rep from Florida, and he brought this up in that interview. Per Jared, if they pass a CR, then all the funding, etc., that DOGE is attacking gets reinstated. For this to not happen, an actual budget bill needs to pass. Check out the interview. Jared was very much on topic.

I also heard on NPR that the framework theyтАЩre patting their backs over after weeks of discussion is supposed to be the easy part of the process. Next up are the actual detail discussions. This shit is gonna get wild lol.

I posted this on today's Morning Shots. Note the use of "legally entitled". I bet a lot of currently legally entitled will suffer a change of state during discussions on the details.

Today, Congressman Derrick Van Orden (WI-03) released the following statement after voting to pass the House budget resolution:

тАЬTo be explicitly clear: todayтАЩs budget resolution did not include any cuts to specific programs. Anyone saying otherwise is lying and engaging in the fearmongering of our farmers, veterans, seniors, and most vulnerable populations. The budget resolution simply sets the framework for how the federal government can be better stewards of taxpayer dollars.

тАЬMillions of Americans depend on Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid, and I will have no part in cutting these programs for the folks that are legally entitled to them.
