Friend -- Last week, despite their threats to the contrary, Congressional Republicans allowed a clean spending bill to move forward, just barely avoiding another government shutdown. The fact of the matter is this: Avoiding a government shutdown is not a meaningful legislative accomplishment. It is not something that the Republican leadership in Congress, or we as Americans, should take pride in. It is the bare minimum of Congress fulfilling their job description. The emergency spending measure we have in place now will keep the government running through mid-December. This is simply kicking the can down the road -- Congress now has the next 10 weeks to figure out a long-term budget solution or we're once again looking at the very real possibility of a shutdown. Careening from crisis to crisis is no way to run a government. If you agree the American people deserve better than last-minute, short-term solutions, add your name today: http://my.democrats.org/Stop-the-Next-GOP-Shutdown There is so much more we can accomplish together. Let's set the bar higher. Barack Obama
