Rep. Greg Meeks, a close ally of House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, expressed his opposition to providing Democratic votes for Johnson's redrafted spending bill. Meeks emphasized that the deal was negotiated in good faith and believes that the agreed-upon terms should be upheld without further alterations.
Meeks stated, 'No, I think we negotiated the deal in good faith. We negotiated. That should be the bill that goes over to the Senate.' He further criticized the idea of supporting the redrafted bill, labeling it as 'madness' and lacking in coherence.
