“Some Republicans who are eager to lift the specter of another government shutdown are frustrated with those House GOP members who opposed a recent bipartisan budget deal that set the spending levels for the current bill being drafted. They say the lopsided vote on that – with only 79 House Republicans backing it – weakened the hand of GOP negotiators… ‘When our leaders in both houses negotiate a deal the majority has to be willing to support it,’ said Rep. Tom Cole, R-Oklahoma... ‘We have a lot of members that are part of the 'vote no, hope yes' crowd.’” - CNN, 12/7/2015 |
