  1. ‘Shut it down’
    
Some #FloridaRepublicans also support demands from the #FarRight #HouseFreedomCaucus to attach other #conservative priorities to a short-term #funding bill to keep the #government running past Sept. 30.
    
In addition to “no blank check for #Ukraine,” the #FreedomCaucus is demanding more funding for #BorderSecurity, #cuts to the #DOJ & the #FBI, & an end to “#woke” policies at the #DOD.

  2. in interviews yesterday, #FloridaRepublicans doubled down:
    
“I’m typically supportive of disaster relief, but I’m not going to vote for #DisasterAid if it’s linked to funding for #Ukraine — I can tell you that.” - #MattGaetz
    #CarlosGiménez said the disaster aid & Ukraine funding “should be 2 separate votes."
    #ByronDonalds said he was focused on “making sure that the American people are getting the recovery aid that they need before [Ukraine] is getting anything."

  3. #FloridaRepublicans walk fine line on #DisasterAid, as #shutdown looms

    #HouseRepublicans from #Florida, which was hit by a major #hurricane last month, are attempting a delicate balancing act on #DisasterRelief funding.
FL Rs say they support additional disaster aid to help their state recover from Hurricane #Idalia….
(but) they won’t vote for disaster aid linked to #Ukraine funding.
