With just four days left until the Dec. 11 deadline for a federal budget bill, Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said Thursday that Republican leadership’s spending proposal “completely erased” the bipartisan efforts at compromise on omnibus riders. “What they sent us back takes your breath away,” Pelosi said. “This is not an appropriations bill with a few policy riders. This is a Tea Party policy wish list with an appropriations bill as an addendum to it.”
