Dems have spent the past two months saying they're fighting to address the crisis of spiking healthcare costs and now they're caving for a deal that does nothing to address healthcare costs ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Dear Democrats:
Until you get NEW leadership, I will not be donating to you.
DON'T ASK for support, when, after so much sacrifice, you FAILED to stand strong. You screwed us & are now complicit!

A reminder - last March, republicans promised to restore $1.1B in funding to DC in exchange for funding the government, and Mike Johnson never took it up in the House.

Please don’t think this beltway game of having retiring Dem senators vote yes while everyone else votes no is going to shield leadership from the end result. We see what is happening and can’t be fooled by those games.

A Senate vote on extending the ACA subsidies is supposed to occur the second week of December, but it is NOT A PART OF THE LEGISLATIVE TEXT.
The Senate still has to debate amendments & then vote for the final language. Then the bill has to go back to the House for a vote on final passage.

I’m a federal employee who was furloughed and just missed my second full paycheck. I have two young kids, so it’s tough.
It’s hard but DAMN worth it. Hold the line.
