White House: Trump ‘Fully Expects All House Republicans to’ Back Spending Bill

In a show of solidarity, President Donald Trump has called upon all House Republicans to fully support the Continuing Resolution (CR) in order to keep the government funded and running. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt announced that the President has high expectations for all members of the Republican party to back the CR and ensure the smooth functioning of the country.

The CR, which was passed by the Senate, is a stop-gap measure that would extend funding for the federal government through December 11, 2020. This crucial legislation is necessary to avoid a government shutdown and provide essential services to the American people during these unprecedented times.

In a statement, Leavitt said, “President Trump fully expects all House Republicans to stand with him and support the CR. It is imperative that we keep the government running and provide necessary resources to combat the ongoing pandemic and support our economy.”

This call to action from the White House comes at a critical time when the nation is grappling with the impacts of COVID-19. The pandemic has created immense economic challenges and has taken a toll on the lives of millions of Americans. With businesses struggling and individuals facing financial uncertainty, it is more vital than ever to have a functional government that can support the country.

President Trump recognizes this and is urging House Republicans to put aside any differences and support the CR for the greater good of the nation. This is not a time for partisan politics, but a time for unity and cooperation.

The President’s call for support has been echoed by other Republican leaders, including House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy. He stated, “It is crucial that we keep the government running and provide funding for critical programs and services. I urge all my colleagues to join me in supporting the CR and keeping the government open.”

The CR, which was passed by the Senate by a vote of 84-10, provides temporary funding for key initiatives such as education, healthcare, and national defense. It also includes funding for addressing the ongoing public health crisis and supporting small businesses.

While Democrats have expressed concerns about certain provisions in the CR, it is important to note that this legislation is only meant to keep the government running for a few more weeks. It is not a long-term solution and the issues can be addressed in future negotiations.

President Trump has made it clear that he expects the full backing of House Republicans in this matter. He is confident that they will rise to the challenge and support the CR, ensuring that the government can continue its essential work for the American people.

It is time for House Republicans to put aside any differences and come together for the sake of the nation. The American people are counting on their representatives to work together and pass the CR. Let us show unity and support for our President’s call to action and keep the government functioning during these challenging times.
