Contributing sentiments towards policy:

53% : "It is not clear what the alleged 11th-hour demands were, but the 1,547-page legislation is filled with provisions that are unrelated to government funding, such as language to reform how pharmacy benefit managers operate and provisions to allow Washington to redevelop the site of the shuttered Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium and possibly woo the Washington Commanders away from their current location in Maryland.
52% : Congressional leaders have finalized a deal to extend government spending into the new year, teeing up a vote later this week just days before funding for federal agencies is scheduled to lapse.
28% : "The so-called reasonable Republicans are nowhere to be seen as Speaker Johnson tries to jam Trump's Project 2025 agenda into government funding legislation," Democratic Caucus Chairman Pete Aguilar (D-CA) said Tuesday.
