We're debating on the government funding package right now and every single Republican voted against a Democratic amendment to pass a clean, one-year extension of the ACA tax credits.
Republicans just don't care about your health care.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
