Let’s survive this 1000-alarm fire together. Also, not to be morbid, but if you’re going to protest—get a will, health care proxy & power of attorney. If you’re unable to act, you’ll want to appoint someone you trust to act for you. (Free legal advice.)

To be clear: the deal they voted on to move forward last night still needs to be formally voted on in the Senate and House. If the eight are your senators, they should be hearing from you this morning!

When you can’t afford healthcare, blame Democrats Dick Durbin and Jeanne Shaheen, who are both retiring. Blame Senators John Fetterman, and Maggie Hassan who are up for reelection in 2028, and Tim Kaine, Jacky Rosen and Angus King who are up in 2030. www.politico.com/news/2025/11...

To me among the most infuriating parts about the healthcare debate and ACA credits is this would not be an issue if we were like every developed country on Earth and GUARANTEED HEALTHCARE AS A HUMAN RIGHT.
We'd pay half per capita what we're paying now, have more coverage, & longer life expectancy.

Q: Will you assure House Democrats they'll get a vote on ACA subsidies by a date certain?

Maybe important to note it was the disruption in air travel that Democrats couldn't stand and not, you know, 40+ million people not knowing where their next meal was coming from.

We polled Indivisible members over the weekend on whether Dems should take a deal or keep fighting for the ACA subsidies. Results: 98.67% said keep fighting.
Dems who vote to surrender now are fracturing their own party in a way that will reverberate loudly in the primaries.

So Democrats get:
1. A CR that will prevent the GOP from facing the wrath of Americans for a shutdown over the holidays
2. A coupon for one (1) meaningless ACA vote that will fail
3. An end to the illegal RIF/SNAP moves that are already before the courts
Those all seem like wins for the GOP.
