The numbers don’t lie. The Senate needs 60 votes to pass a bill. Republicans hold 53 Senate seats. This means we need at least 7 Democrats to join with Senate Republicans to reopen the government — but they refuse. The takeaway? This is a Democrat Shutdown.

For anyone still confused: The Senate needs 60 votes to pass a bill. Republicans only have 53 seats, so at least 7 Democrats must vote yes for the CR to pass. Democrats keep voting NO, which is why the government remains shut down. They’ve blocked it multiple times. It’s really not that complicated.

REMEMBER: It takes 60 votes in the Senate to reopen the government. Republicans have just 53 seats — which means we need at least 7 Democrats to vote to reopen the government. The House ALREADY passed the clean CR funding bill back on September 19, and Senate Republicans have done EVERYTHING possible to end the Democrat Shutdown. Since picking pointless political fights plays better with Chuck Schumer’s radical Marxist base, he’s refusing to let his members vote to open the government.

Governor Kathy Hochul is blatantly LYING to the American people, and she knows it. The Senate requires 60 votes to pass a funding bill — Democrats have to vote for it too. This is the Democrats' shutdown.

NEW: Republicans are taunting Democrats to vote against the CR, which avoids a government shutdown, after Dems just 3 months ago went on a media parade about how dangerous a government shutdown was. On Saturday, Trump called on the House & Senate to vote 'Yes' on the CR. Back in December, top Democrats, including Hakeem Jeffries, went on a media tour about how a shutdown would "hurt everyday Americans." "The House and Senate have put together, under the circumstances, a very good funding Bill ("CR")! All Republicans should vote (Please!) YES next week," Trump said on Truth. Speaker Johnson says he is aiming for a vote on Tuesday. Republicans have just a 218-214 majority in the House, meaning they can only have one defection, assuming all Democrats oppose the CR.

A supermajority of voters – Democrats, Republicans, and Independents – oppose Newsom's Redistricting Sham. But he has a plan to overcome this: Fraud. His ballot language says a Yes vote "retains" the independent commission when it actually overthrows the commission.

House Democrats warning Senate Democrats not to vote for GOP spending bill — as many Senate Dems torn with shutdown looming. Pramila Jayapal warning of a “backlash” for Senate Dems who vote for it. “They should refuse to allow this bill to pass in the Senate,” she told me. If they don’t? “I think there's going to be huge backlash from across the country, and I think all of them will have to deal with the consequences of that,” Jayapal said. AOC: “The Republicans have the White House, the Senate and the House. If they want to do this, and if they want to screw over the American people, they can do this with their votes and their party. I do not believe that Democrats should participate.” Sixty votes will be needed in the 53-47 GOP-led Senate to break a filibuster. Shutdown deadline: 11:59p Friday. The House is on recess after passing bill.

71 percent of Californians – Republicans, Democrats, and Independents alike – support requiring proof of citizenship when registering to vote. Yet only 2 percent of House Democrats voted for the SAVE Act, our bill to enact this common sense policy.

🚨BREAKING: The Rules Committee just voted 7-5 to BLOCK Rep. Ro Khanna’s amendment that would have forced a House vote demanding AG Pam Bondi to release the Epstein files. All 7 NO votes were Republicans. The 5 YES votes? 4 Democrats and 1 Republican. What are Republicans so afraid of?

BREAKING: Republicans HAVE THE VOTES to PASS Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill. Lisa Murkowski (RINO-AK) has flipped her vote to yes, giving the Republicans 50 votes + JD Vance's tiebreaker. Fox: “Mullin tells us that the GOP already has the bill text ready to go; they’re just waiting on the Democrats to finish huddling.” With a couple more amendments, proposals, and a final Republican amendment, we should have a final yes vote later this afternoon.

🚨 The Democrats can continue to lie to the American people, but here are the cold hard facts. ⬇️ > House Republicans acted responsibly and passed a bipartisan, clean CR to keep the government open. > Now, we need the Senate to simply do the same. > The bill requires 60 votes in the Senate to pass. > There are only 53 Republicans in the Senate, meaning Democrats need to step up, pass the CLEAN CR, and REOPEN the government! The ball is in the Democrat’s court. Will they do the right thing, or will they continue to put #PoliticsOverPeople? It’s their choice to make.

“DEMOCRATS ARE THE ONES VOTING REPEATEDLY TO SHUT DOWN THE GOVERNMENT” What will it take to reopen? “Republicans do not have the ability to do this on our own. It's a simple math problem. We need Democrats to help. You need 60 votes in the Senate, we only have 53 Republicans.” — Speaker Mike Johnson

“The gold standard for ending a shutdown has been a clean continuing resolution...That is what the Republicans have passed in the House, that is what they sent to the Senate, and that is what Senate Democrats have blocked using the filibuster.” Brit Hume weighs in on whether the government shutdown is any closer to ending as Democrats and unions weigh in.

"We need to have a VOTE. Show all Republicans support this - and hopefully, Democrats will, and it will pass."

Senate Republicans finally got 50 votes for the Save America Act and VP Vance’s vote would make 51! But it can’t pass because Senate Republicans don’t have the courage to override the filibuster and actually pass the election integrity bill that Americans are demanding! The filibuster 60 vote rule is a self imposed rule that they can easily override, but refuse to. The Republican controlled Senate is absolutely spineless and worthless. Democrats will definitely override the filibuster when they gain the majority in the Senate.
