I swear to God if they cave now…
Welp time to watch chuck do what he does best: Cave at the worst possible time for absolutely no gain.
I don’t know what proposal there is. They’ve already said to restore the cuts and pay people. The hell else proposal is there possible?
My guess is that the proposal will be:
– 2-year extension of enhanced ACA premium subsidies
– Minibus funding for Agriculture-FDA, Military Construction-VA and Legislative Branch
– Continuing resolution for the rest of government
– Re-hire people who were RIFd during the shutdown
Almost certainly dead on arrival in Senate, but even if it passed, it would never get passed by the House and signed by the President.
Everybody here is like reverse wishcasting caving like they have been for weeks but having the entire Dem delegation there + Thune sounding pessimistic about the centrist Dems = seems a lot likelier to not be caving
There were a few days leading up to the election that felt cave-y but literally nothing else before or since has suggested such
Among other things, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer will propose that Dems will support reopening the government if Republicans agree to attach one year ACA subsidies extension, per three sources.

The end was near as soon as air travel started getting impacted
Seems reasonable
