McConnell won’t block government funding bill like Cruz wants

[BootinUp]

You probably already know this but I didn't see it posted:

-----------------------
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) will not try to block the Senate from moving ahead on a House-passed bill that would keep the government running and defund Obamacare, putting him at odds with Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.).
"Senator McConnell supports the House Republicans’ bill and will not vote to block it, since it defunds Obamacare and funds the government without increasing spending by a penny," said McConnell spokesman Don Stewart on Monday afternoon.
While the House-passed plan is exactly what Cruz has been calling for, the Texas conservative wants his colleagues to join him to in an effort keep the Senate from moving ahead on the measure. Why? Because once the bill clears a procedural vote requiring the support of 60 senators, Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) intends to strip out the portion that would defund Obamcare. Then, because of Senate rules, the new measure could pass the Democratic-controlled Senate with a simple majority.
Stewart said McConnell would vote against any amendments that add funding for Obamacare back into the House-passed bill.
