According to that anonymous former employee, the problems inside the plant went far beyond anything the public had been told.

Democratic Representative Rosa DeLauro of Connecticut and Senator Patty Murray of Washington, the ranking Democrats on the House and Senate Appropriations Committees, are both furious, but it remains unclear what they can or will do.
Julie RovnerHOST
Is there anything they can do about this? I mean, it appears to be something that, you know, HHS has done with DOD and it seems to be kind of a fait accompli.
Sandhya RamanPANELIST
I mean, this whole situation has been kind of unusual.
Miles BakerHOST
So this is from the House Democrats.
Miles BakerHOST

Erika AhernHOST
... um, she denounced the plan.

Right.
Erika AhernHOST

Erika AhernHOST
Where's L- Rosa DeLauro going wrong, Josh?
Josh MercerHOST
Josh?Well, I mean, like, w- it, it always amuses me when Democrats are against government spending for something.
Kate Batchelder OdellHOST
And I think, you know, first of all, the idea that this one will just be done by using the existing funding, to me, just doesn't check out that we're going to just take the existing pot of money and that there won't be pressures to spend more money on this program.
Kate Batchelder OdellHOST
You have Democrats already saying Rosa DeLauro in the House said that J.D. Vance wants to raid this development fund, and it's completely inadequate as it is.
Kate Batchelder OdellHOST
Children are on our waiting list, so we need... more funding in this program if we're going to open it up to new constituencies.
Kate Batchelder OdellHOST
That's inevitable.
Thom HartmannHOST
Senator Patty Murray, the top Democrat on appropriations, calls it outrageous and backwards, illegal and immoral, and a culture war griff that punishes people for not being married.

Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro says it would force more families to fight over the same inadequate pot of money.
Thom HartmannHOST
Remember what Trump said about daycare this spring? We're fighting wars.
Thom HartmannHOST
We can't take care of daycare.

Eighteen major shipping nations are calling on maritime nations, quote, "To actively support and uphold the core principles governing shipping from freedom of navigation to the international legal frameworks governed by multilateral institutions such as the International Maritime Organization." In a statement, the Consultive Shipping Group said it was committed to working together, quote, "To ensure a level playing field by applying rules more consistently and transparently across global shipping." Allowing fragmentation of supply chains, quote, "Undermines the global rules-based maritime framework and increases the risk of disruptions at key maritime choke points," the group said in a statement.
Mitchell MillerCORRESPONDENT
Yeah, it gets really kind of complicated, especially when a lot of people on both sides of the aisle really wanted to get this continuing resolution passed.
Mitchell MillerCORRESPONDENT
And that includes the top appropriators, Tom Cole from Oklahoma and Rosa DeLauro from Connecticut, both of them on the same page here saying, even though they don't love continuing resolutions, they thought, OK, we'll get this passed and we'll get it through December 11th.
Mitchell MillerCORRESPONDENT
So we have federal spending and the lights stay on in the government.
Mitchell MillerCORRESPONDENT
But related to that, there was also a series of other GOP bills that many conservatives had concerns about in connection with continuing resolution and they all got kind of tied in together.
Mitchell MillerCORRESPONDENT
Yeah.
Mitchell MillerCORRESPONDENT
It gets really kind of complicated, especially when a lot of people on both sides of the aisle really wanted to get this continuing resolution passed, and that includes the top appropriators, uh, Tom Cole from Oklahoma and Rosa DeLauro from Connecticut, both of them on the same page here saying even though they don't love continuing resolutions, they thought, "Okay, we'll get this passed, and we'll get it through December eleventh so we have federal spending and the lights stay on in the government." But related to that, there was also a series of other GOP bills that many conservatives had concerns about in connection with the continuing resolution, and they all got kind of tied in together.
Mitchell MillerCORRESPONDENT
Uh, some of the things that are included in that continuing resolution, one of them that angered conservatives is this change to how the government deals with grants going out by the Trump administration, and the Trump administration essentially wants to bypass a lot of the guidelines in connection with, uh, getting these funds out.
Mitchell MillerCORRESPONDENT
And that really concerned Democrats, who worried that, uh, the, the Trump administration was going to do more in this area.
