The “deal” negotiated in the Senate puts a vote on healthcare AFTER the open enrollment deadline to be covered in January. This is NOT a good deal and should absolutely not pass the House.

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.

🚨 💰 WOW — @SenatorHagerty & @MarshaBlackburn snuck a provision into the spending bill that would let them sue the government for $500,000 because Jack Smith looked into their phone records around Trump’s insurrection.

Thomas wants desperately to overturn Obergefell but Kim Davis is not exactly a sympathetic plaintiff. Guess here is Thomas convinced Alito and Gorsuch to wait for a stronger case.
Or maybe somebody (Ginny?) convinced Thomas if he overturned Obergefell, Loving v. Virginia would be next.

Time for our quarterly update, and we’re starting with good news!
Coal generation in Spain 🇪🇸 has dropped 97% since the early 2000s, making up just 1% of the country’s power mix so far this year. The payoff? Cleaner air and 95% drop in emissions from coal power in ten years.

I’m voting NO on the Senate funding deal.
I’ve heard from countless constituents whose premiums are set to more than double next year — and they’re not sure if they’ll be able to afford their health coverage.
I won’t support a bill that leaves them behind.

Short term, we must not allow health care premiums to double for more than 20 million Americans.
