This is why the vast majority of Democratic lawmakers wanted to force the ACA subsidies into a CR to reopen the government. That would’ve done more to force Mike Johnson’s hand. The deal they struck, which promises a vote in the Senate, does not guarantee a vote in the House.
In the most predictable development ever, Mike Johnson is not committing to hold a House vote on ACA subsidies

You think we're stupid? You greenlit this deal. If you couldn't stop Dems from breaking away, then you don't deserve to be the leader.
I will not support the Republican bill that’s on the Senate floor because it fails to do anything of substance to fix America’s healthcare crisis.

Spending Bill Would Pave Way for Senators to Sue Over Phone Searches
Republicans have voiced outrage that Jack Smith looked at G.O.P. lawmakers’ phone records surrounding the Jan. 6 attack. Legislation to reopen the government would allow them to sue for $500,000 each.
