Topic: Clean Cr

2 chapters across the catalog

Vice President JD Vance uses a "bubble gum on a dam" analogy to describe the administration's efforts to fund essential services during the Democrat-led shutdown. Vance argues that the administration has exhausted its ability to move money around for SNAP benefits and other programs. He calls on Democrats to pass a "clean CR" (Continuing Resolution) to reopen the government rather than forcing the country to operate on a shoestring budget.

Teamsters President Sean O'Brien joins Vice President Vance and Secretary Duffy to demand a clean CR to protect 1.3 million working men and women. He emphasizes that workers should not be caught in the middle of political disputes, citing the lack of pay for TSA and air traffic controllers as a major safety risk. Jones warns that the continued shutdown could lead to catastrophic events, such as mid-air jet collisions, due to staffing and morale issues.
