Democrats absolutely do not want a shutdown and are working in good faith to fund the government—but we need to know Republicans are willing to work with us to protect Congress’s power of the purse.
That is the absolute bare minimum—and it is frankly not asking a whole lot.

Bipartisan, measured, stiff, and financed.
Work with your colleagues and bring it. #makeaplan
Geeez!!
They are now synonyms for the phrase "gullible fools."
Please try not to follow in their disastrous footsteps.
You're not in Kansas anymore, or in the United States the way it used to be.
Wake up, Senator!!
You can't negotiate with a Party that is ruled by a liar who doesn't even pause for a second to break any promise, any contract.
Do NOT negotiate with the Republicans!
If they want to shut down the government, make the Republicans do it 100% on their own.
Let the Republicans figure out how to run things.
Dont help them
Short and to the point.
Do they really believe they report to F45? And not the American ppl?
@cantwell.senate.gov
“working with” the greedy, soulless GOP fascists. At this perilous time, a shutdown would at least slow their destruction of our safety nets and our rule of law. SHUT THEM DOWN!
You cannot negotiate with a corrupt administration until DOGE is stopped and all work products are accounted for and all IAGs are returned to their positions.
We need to stop pretending that the GOP can work in good faith. We're way past them proving themselves as dishonest cowards. Senator, you and your colleagues, must jump in "full stop" and blow up anything and everything you can. Shutting the government down may be required. Hold out!!

Remember: rewarded behavior gets repeated. If you reward them by working with them, they'll continue breaking the law and destroying our democracy.

Shut it down.
Demand rule of law.
They are not public servants, they seek to be profiteers.
