The Senate on Tuesday evening voted 70-25 to advance the $1.7 trillion Omnibus spending bill and open debate.
This is just the first procedural vote.
The latest spending bill is full of special interest earmarks and pork.
The bill includes $45 billion to Ukraine, $7.5 million in LGBTQ programs, Jan 6 prosecution funding and more.
There is no money for border security.

Senate Republicans are giving away the incoming GOP Majority House’s power of the purse until September 2023.
A group of Republican Senators pushed back on the process.
Senator Rand Paul blasted the Schumer-Pelosi Omnibus spending bill.
“I brought along the 1.7 trillion, 4,000+ page Pelosi-Schumer omnibus spending bill that’s being fast-tracked through the Senate. This process stinks. It’s an abomination. It’s a no good rotten way to run government. We’re standing up and saying NO.” Rand Paul said earlier Tuesday.
