U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-Texas) released the following statement today regarding the Democrats' proposed omnibus spending bill:
"After neglecting to pass a budget and any of the thirteen annual spending bills this year, today we learn Senate Democrats now want to sandwich them together, totaling almost 2,000 pages, and jam them through in the waning moments of this Lame Duck session before anyone can read them. This political end-around reveals just how quickly my colleagues across the aisle have already forgotten the voters' message in November, and I urge Senate Democrats to keep the wishes of the American people in mind as they consider this move."
