BEDFORD, Va.—Senate Democrats will withhold votes on legislation to fund the government unless Republicans and the Trump administration commit to reversing cuts to education, healthcare, and research spending, Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.) told The Epoch Times on Aug. 28.
Warner made the remarks during a tour across the state—through Bedford, Lynchburg, and Appomattox—where he discussed cuts in federal funding and their effects on Virginians.He said that Republicans would have to not only restore funding, but also guarantee that the executive branch wouldn’t withhold funds previously authorized by Congress, as it is currently doing.
