Just more government spending wrapped in extensions—when’s Congress gonna learn to stop borrowing our kids' paychecks?

Putting band-aids on the budget won't heal systemic underfunding; we need real care, not stopgap naps.

Delaying decisions under the guise of continuation—because accountability must be that scary thing everyone hates.

This bill is life support for critical programs—let's just hope the docs keep the patient alive through November.

A short-term fix that kicks the can while Congress figures out its homework—pragmatic but hardly inspiring.
