Reading or logic fail on your part. To say that the House has an obligation to pass bills that could pass the Senate and the President is not to the Senate doesn't have a similar responsibility to the House and the President. The Senate for its part has passed a clean continuing resolution that would reportedly pass the House if it would be allowed a vote. House leadership blocks it procedurally.
Secondly, I've already explained why they refuse to negotiate smaller appropriations. Get it through your skull, REPUBLICANS ARE DOING THIS AS A METHOD OF DEFUNDING A DEMOCRATICALLY ENACTED LAW. THEY OPENLY ADMIT THIS. THE PRECEDENT THIS WOULD SET IS UNACCEPTABLE AND WOULD DESTROY THE FUNCTION OF REPRESENTATIVE GOVERNANCE.
I won't answer this question a third time.
