The $1.7 trillion dollar spending bill has been revealed —and Florida Rep. Byron Donalds says the GOP needs to take a united stance behind the word “no.” Donalds shared his thoughts on Twitter this week.
“Every Republican should be a NO on the omnibus spending bill,” he wrote Monday night, prior to the 4,155-page bill’s release. Days prior, Donalds asserted that “Any Senate Republican that agrees to a 9-month omnibus spending bill will steal the ability for House Republicans to secure the border” and would therefore “be complicit in Biden’s border crisis!!”:

From Breitbart News:
Donalds is also part of the House Republican effort backed by GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) which is threatening to thwart legislative efforts of Senate Republicans who join in and support the massive spending bill, which, in part, offers billions to Ukraine and contains tens of millions in earmarks.
“I’m proud to support my colleagues in this letter calling on the @SenateGOP to oppose the Democrats’ Omnibus spending bill. No more status quo. No more bad deals. No more screwing over our nation,” Donalds said.
“VOTE NO ON THE OMNIBUS,” he exclaimed, as his colleagues expressed similar sentiments:
