Senate lawmakers have just started considering fiscal 2022 spending bills, but Republicans are warning the overall package needs to boost defense money and exclude abortion rights and other “poison pill” language to win their support.
Minority Leader Mitch McConnell warned Democrats from the Senate floor Wednesday that any spending agreement must include adequate military funding and exclude policy riders GOP lawmakers traditionally oppose.
“When it comes to floor consideration, we cannot and will not start planting individual trees before we have bipartisan consensus on the shape of the forest,” said the Kentucky Republican.
McConnell’s threat could upend the chance of passing spending legislation ahead of the Sept. 30 end of the fiscal year and increases the likelihood that Congress will have to pass a stopgap bill to keep the government operating.
