"...as Cruz tries to keep the bill on track to pass ahead of Friday’s midnight deadline and keep unrelated amendments out of a final bill."
In the Senate, Schumer has control and can add to bills as he pleases.
It is up to the House and House Republicans to prepare proper bills and pass them, passing the bills on to the Senate for its approval.
If $35 trillion in federal debt is not redeemed with money of corresponding value, there are going to be adverse consequences. Teachers may find their summer vacation dollars are not acceptable outside the USA.
“as Cruz tries to ... keep unrelated amendments out of a final bill.”
I suspect that’s the rub. Establishment Dims and Repukes alike love to lard up bills with unrelated spending for pet pork projects.
Remember this is from the very leftist ‘Hill’ ...
The joke is on those who joked about it. Because I suspect in time violence will break out as things become worse for everyday citizens. Desperate people quickly become extremely dangerous people. Just sayin’.
The article keeps repeating itself over, and over, and over, laughter, humor, fun, laughter, not sure what its about.
Oh, it’ll pass alright.
As soon as a $25 billion Ukraine subsidy amendment is tacked on...

Other than one or two senators, this article highlights the problem with the GOP.
They’re all go-along-to-get-along do-nothings.
They call Cruz a “rabble-rouser”(or the journalist does - whatever)
Why aren’t there 40 GOP rabble-rousers? Why aren’t there 45 GOP rabble-rousers? They’re all worthless. Except for two or three of them.
Why isn’t every GOP senator trying to out-rabble-rouse the last rabble-rouser, get a leg up on the last rabble-rouse and one-up on the next rabble-rouse? Why are they all trying to appease Biden?
Appeasement doesn’t work. They are all weak! That’s what the article shows, they are all weak.

I believe that is a Ted Stryker quote from “”Airplane.”
