The House sent a continuing resolution bill to the Senate but McConnell turned it down. Why, because it did not contain new money for farmers. First let me say I live in an area surrounded by farms and a vast majority of the money in previous farm aide went to the huge corporation farms and not much at all to the family owned farms. In Wisconsin alone 800 family farms went under last year and already that many have gone under this year. So why is McConnell willing to shut down the government over farm aide, because the farm aide has become a huge slush fund for Trump, Mcconnell and the GOP to use and at the expense of the tax payer. So we have about a week left before the government shuts down and who will blink first.
