What Good Is A Shutdown Deal Without Addressing Rescissions [View all]

Congress could agree on a deal to renew Obamacare subsidies, agree on a deal to properly fund Medicare, Medicaid, SNAP, Social Security and then later down the road Krasnov can simply not fund any of it because of his new rescissions power.

Until Congress regains control of the purse strings we have a dictator.

Call me a doom and gloomer but Krasnov has been gutting money appropriated by Congress on a regular basis.
