Without the DREAM Act included, Pelosi tells Paul Ryan he’s on his own to keep the government openhttps://theintercept.com/2017/12/21/house-spending-bill-chip-three-months/ …

Ryan, is Pelosi demanding full Chip funding too or just Dream Act?
-
-
Too bad, should absolutely be requiring CHIP be fully funded.
-
Yeah that is BIZARRE. I suppose she thinks GOP will cave on CHIP, and say they're meeting her half way, which would pressure her to abandon Dreamers
-
They're going to get it out of the House with Republican votes,
@SenSchumer and@SenateDems are going to roll on both the#DreamAct and fully funding#CHIP. There will probably be short term funding but CHIP families will have to go through this again in a couple of months. -
You probably are right
-
Still, assuming that is the plan anyway, stand up for CHIP too. Eh, whatever. Sick of kabuki
-
Exactly I've called my Senator Sherrod Brown's office and asked for a no vote without clean fully funded CHIP as a part of the deal. I just don't see that as too much to ask for.
-
And if Republicans want their CR so badly that they overturn the filibuster (they won't) so be it. I am beside myself that we are actually bargaining over The Children's Health Insurance Program.

There’s a CHIP extension in the CR though at the moment, correct? (A short term one)

Interesting and somewhat surprising. And I don’t understand it—impossible to justify one and not other.
