Averting a Government Shutdown | National Review

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

55% : The House-passed bill would increase funding for defense, veterans' affairs, and Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and offset that with some cuts to non-defense domestic spending.
43% : That said, the current reality is that President Trump and the new Republican Congress took over months into the fiscal year, with the government operating under a short-term spending agreement that had been cobbled together at the end of the Biden administration.
27% : However, it would force a tough vote on Republicans, who would have to choose between defying Trump or allowing him to continue to impose tariffs unilaterally.
26% : With Republicans in full control of Washington, and with Trump and Elon Musk's DOGE making noise daily about slashing the government workforce and shutting down the Department of Education, Democrats have good reason to believe that the GOP would be blamed for any shutdown.
