The Senate just passed legislation with a voice vote to fund pediatric cancer research, a provision that House Republicans had stripped from the government funding extension. Now Biden will sign. FU 🖕🖕Trump and Musk!

Paul Rand had been holding up this bill, (stand alone), for months. Dems put it in the CR to get it passed. Agreed to take it out if it was voted on seperatly.
It has now been passed.
President unelect Musk is claiming a win on reduceing the CR size.
Trump is the loser NOT Musk!
Musk still got a number of things previously in the bill removed including caps on medication prices, protections against revenge porn & deep AI fake porn, caps on Chinese investments, & cuts to women’s breast cancer research!
What about the fix for stolen food stamps, the pharmacy benefit overhaul, the RFK stadium transfer, the disclosure of junk fees, and criminalizing of certain deep fakes that would protect women (actually anyone, be we know mostly women get targeted)!
Yes! I had read that article and it’s so helpful you posted it here. What I meant is: was the Senate able to save some of those policies/funding measures. I read how they were able to save cancer research and hoped there were ways to save above mentioned.
