The idea that Republicans will pass an omnibus bill to avoid a government shutdown 'is absolutely insane' and represents 'negligence, malice,' Rep. Matt Rosendale says.

Rosendale countered that McCarthy has known about the appropriations bills for nine months, calling the push to a resolution a "failure of leadership." "The American people expect us to deliver the appropriation bills, the 12 bills that lay out clearly, transparently, what we're going to be funding government at, what levels we're going to fund it at so that we have the ability to remove spending on all of the D.E.I. standards that the Biden administration put in there,Rep. Matt Rosendale, R-Mont., criticized Speaker McCarthy’s response to avoiding a government shutdown on"Mornings with Maria" Monday, August 28, 2023.
"Passing a continuing resolution does nothing more but set the table for an omnibus bill to come over from Chuck Schumer and Mitch McConnell," he continued. "And that is the definition of business as usual, and that's not what people sent me up here to do." The lawmaker also refuted McCarthy’s claim that "all" of the government will shut down, arguing it’s only 15% of government functions.
