Washington, D.C. — The clock continues to tick on the time to come to a budget agreement. Iowa Senator Joni Ernst, a Republican from Red Oak, says President Donald Trump has tried to work with Democrats.
She says the effort to reach a compromise has been one-sided.
Ernst says they need to work together to find a way forward to solve the issue and keep the government running.
Ernst says there have been a lot of proposals to keep the government from shutting down. She says they need to figure out a workable plan and move on it.
Ernst says they can go through that plan point-by-point and come up with a solution that would take care of the issue.
