Democrats made an offer to Republicans to re-open the government and extend the ACA tax credits for one year.
We’re calling their bluff.

BREAKING THIS MORNING:
Open enrollment for health care starts today—and premiums are set to SKYROCKET because of the Republicans.
They are refusing to reopen the government and address the health care crisis they created.

Thanks to Republicans, this is how much more families in New York will have to pay each month for their health insurance.

I say to my fellow Americans this No Kings Day:
Do not let Donald Trump and Republicans intimidate you into silence. That's what they want to do. They're afraid of the truth.
Speak out, use your voice, and exercise your right to free speech.

Today’s No Kings rallies are an affirmation of what America is all about.
We are a democracy.
We have no kings, despite the fact that Trump has even said he wants to become one.

Instead of working to reopen the government and fix your healthcare:
Donald “Law and Order” Trump spent today letting a convicted fraudster off the hook.
That was his priority.

The government is shut down because Trump and the Republicans are hellbent on taking health care away from you.
And they won’t even come to the table to talk to us about it.

Republicans JUST VOTED DOWN our bill to avoid a government shutdown at midnight and address the healthcare needs of the American people.
Republicans are plunging us into a government shutdown rather than fixing their healthcare crisis.

This shutdown is in Trump’s hands.
He admitted in the room today that the president gets the blame for a shutdown.
Americans are facing a crisis of rising health care costs. If the government shuts down, it’s because Republicans would rather shut it down rather than help people afford health care.

Portland is not “war ravaged.” U.S. troops are not political playthings. And Trump is not a king.

We've demanded Republicans sit down and talk with us for two months—but Donald Trump said to ignore the Democrats.
By refusing to meet with us, Trump is barreling America toward a government shutdown.
He's not being president. And he's not up to the job.

Trump knows he is going to be blamed for a shutdown. He’s even said so himself.
In the past for a shutdown, TRUMP has said: “I ACTUALLY THINK THE PRESIDENT WOULD BE BLAMED”
He’s right.

Faced with the simple duty of sitting down to keep the government open, Trump RUNS AWAY before the talks even BEGIN.
