Unfriendly reminder, both Republicans and Democrats can stop this at any point. Republicans have 50+ votes in the senate and already passed a bill in the house. All they would need to do is consider re-opening the government as important as appointing a supreme court justice and modify filibuster rules (which only require 50+ votes and they did change for supreme court [1]). Democrats obviously can just vote for the Republican bill. --- Although personally, I'm fine with Democrats refusing to vote for a bill they had no input on.
