Trump: Republicans Must Pass Clean Funding Bill

President Donald Trump says House Republicans must “stick together” and vote to pass a “clean” short-term stopgap funding plan this week.

“Congressional Republicans, including [Senate Majority] Leader John Thune and [House] Speaker Mike Johnson, are working on a short term ‘CLEAN’ extension of Government Funding to stop Cryin’ Chuck Schumer from shutting down the Government,” Trump said in a Truth Social post Monday.

“In times like these, Republicans have to stick TOGETHER to fight back against the Radical Left Democrat demands, and vote ‘YES!’ on both Votes needed to pass a Clean CR [continuing resolution] this week out of the House of Representatives. Democrats want the Government to shut down. Republicans want the Government to OPEN. Democrats love CRIME, Republicans make our Country SAFE — WE HATE CRIME. FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION.”
