The President continues to irresponsibly threaten a government shutdown and launch ad hominem attacks. Majority leadership is playing games with the contents of this and future continuing resolutions. Negotiations on new spending caps for defense and nondefense investments are stalled. The majority is grasping for excuses as to why they have failed to protect 700,000 young Americans from deportation, reauthorize the Children's Health Insurance Program, or move expeditiously on critical disaster assistance. Is there any evidence whatsoever that this majority intends to fulfill these vital responsibilities to the American people? Given these failures, I believe it is incumbent on Members of Congress to say enough is enough.
