Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer stated that Democrats wouldn't support the government funding bill passed by Republicans in the House.

Democrats are unified in calling for a one-month funding bill to allow time for bipartisan negotiations.

Some Democrats fear the consequences of both accepting the House bill and facing a government shutdown.

Senate Democrats want guardrails on Trump's powers and disagree with the House bill's boost to military spending and cuts to non-defense programs.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune supports the House's six-month measure and believes it is the only viable solution to keep the government funded.
