Democratic opposition mounts to GOP stopgap funding measure

House Democrats oppose a Republican-led stopgap funding bill seeking to extend federal spending until December 4, criticizing it as an abdication of responsibility and a circumvention of bipartisan negotiations. The bill faces potential doom if Democrats unite against it, with key figures like Rep. Marcy Kaptur and Rep. Pete Aguilar emphasizing refusal to support the measure without good-faith negotiations.
