Democrats have been fighting for months to address America's healthcare crisis
For the millions who will lose coverage
For people with cancer who won't get the care they need

If Republicans want to talk about long-term fixes to ACA affordability, Democrats are ready.
But in the meantime, doing nothing is derelict. People will go bankrupt, people will lose insurance, and people will get sicker.
Republicans cannot continue doing nothing.

The only reason Republicans have dragged this shutdown on for so long is simply because Republicans don’t want to lower healthcare costs.
They are happy to let 24 million Americans see their premiums DOUBLE on average.

Today on the Senate floor:
Democrats made an offer to Republicans to re-open the government and extend the ACA tax credits for one year.

Never before in American history has a president cut off SNAP during a shutdown, including Trump in his first term.
