Schumer and Johnson spar over federal spending as deadline nears
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) engaged in a public exchange of strong remarks on Sunday regarding negotiations on government spending.
With several federal agencies facing the possibility of a shutdown on Friday, the urgency to reach a deal this week is paramount.
In a “dear colleague” letter issued on Sunday evening, Schumer mentioned the ongoing “intense discussions” with Johnson’s team on spending matters.
While expressing his hope to have the bill text for a spending deal by the weekend, Schumer noted that House Republicans require additional time to navigate their internal considerations.
“Unfortunately, extreme House Republicans have shown they’re more capable of causing chaos than passing legislation,” Schumer wrote, calling for Johnson to “buck the extremists in his caucus and do the right thing.”
Johnson shot back in a statement blasting the “counterproductive rhetoric” in Schumer’s letter, saying the House has “worked nonstop, and is continuing to work in good faith,” Axios reported.
