Our healthcare is on the line. The Senate is moving fast on a funding bill that doesn’t include the ACA premium tax credit extension.
That means higher premiums for millions of families—Call your senator: (202) 224-3121

i think this is key. taking the deal would amount to taking the blame. it would turn a clear political victory into an unambiguous defeat.
If the Dems blink after all of this, for a deal that all but ensures no ACA subsidies in 2026 anyway, then what was the purpose of letting the shutdown go for 40 days in the first place?

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

#Israel #Truah Rabbi Jacobs lays out why Israel, like every other country, "can and should be held accountable for violations" of human rights law."Americans can and should protest this war." And she clarifies that it is not antisemitic "to advocate for changes in U.S. policy toward Israel."
