UPDATE: The Senate votes 53-47 to shoot down the Baldwin amendment to extend ACA funds for 1 year. A party-line vote with every Republican rejecting it.
An important vote in this series: Tammy Baldwin’s proposal to extend ACA expiring funds for 1 year. It’s structured as a motion to table (i.e. scrap it from the amendment tree). But it’ll show the appetite (or lack thereof) in the Senate to address this issue.

Donald Trump and Republicans believe the affordability crisis in America is made up.
That’s why these extremists haven’t done a damn thing to lower the high cost of living.
You deserve better.

Meanwhile Trump President said last week “I don’t want to hear about affordability” as health care premiums explode & food/energy prices rise.

Republicans CONTROL the House, Senate and White House.
They have the POWER to lower costs and save health care.
They are CHOOSING not to do any of that.

This “deal” is an empty promise and a betrayal to the millions of Americans currently seeing a shutdown of their health care.
I’m a HELL NO if it comes to the House. And I encourage my Senate Democratic colleagues to stand strong and continue fighting to protect the ACA tax credits.

The House GOP has been on a taxpayer-funded vacation for the last 50 days.
As millions of Americans are facing a shutdown of their health care & millions more are struggling to put food on the table, this is not a game!It’s past time for Speaker Johnson to bring the House back into voting session.

From utility bills to grocery prices to health care costs — across the board, life is getting more expensive for everyday Americans.
And Trump’s message is “I don’t want to hear about affordability.”

Unless Congress acts, enhanced Affordable Care Act premium tax credits will expire at year’s end, leaving small businesses in Pennsylvania and across the country bracing for higher health care costs.

Trump promised to lower prices on “day one.”
So far, he’s given huge tax cuts to billionaires, RAISED prices for Americans with his tariff-taxes, sent a $40 billion bailout to Argentina, and renovated a bathroom.
But sure, he'll focus on affordability next year…

Last night’s results show it’s time to put down the ballroom plans and pick UP the phone.
Tell the USDA to FULLY fund November’s SNAP benefits - now. Then Mr. Art of the Deal should call House & Senate Democratic leaders to meet with him and NEGOTIATE an end to this shutdown.

Q: Trump wrote that SNAP benefits will only be given when Democrats reopen the government. As written, how would that not violate the court order?
