This might be enough to peel off enough votes to move forward, even though everyone involved presumably would expect such a vote to ultimately fail to chive the goal.
 


“…The first vote would be to reopen the government, while the second would be on a one-year extension of the Obamacare enhanced premium tax credits, plus a commitment to pass a longer-term solution by a date certain.

Last week, THUNE was floating giving Dems a vote by a date certain. "I've said all along, I'm open to that."

Dems want a solution, though, not a vote. And Thune/Johnson won't guarantee an outcome. So we'll see if Dems shift.

The problem: House Republican leadership would be quite hesitant to guarantee a vote.”
 
lol…. I haven’t been paying attention to the details. So, the democrats are willing to shut down the government because they don’t want to end benefits that were enacted to help people after the pandemic?

That's one way to put it. Another way would be to provide healthcare for working class people that we'll pay for regardless, just in more expensive ways if we don't provide healthcare plans for them. Also people shouldn't lose everything just because they get sick.

I’m not sure that’s completely accurate, but the economy has been booming, wages have been rising, inflation was greatly reduced, and unemployment very low. When would be the time we could claw back some of enhanced benefits that were granted due to a pandemic?

I don’t know much about the intrcacies of health care. I did hear a politician make a good point. The ACA has done nothing to control the cost of healthcare, rather just provide more dollars to pay for it. That resonates with me as not being an optimal solution. I’m open to why that is wrong.

Based on your post, you don’t know the intricacies of anything, including the economy.

Healthcare costs have risen at less than half the rate they were pre ACA. Unless someone believes rhat to be a whopper of a coincidence for more than a decade now, the ACA has indeed addressed in some way the increases in the cost of health insurance.
 
More people get Health Care Sounds like an optimal solution to making us healthier
orangeturd has almost tryant like powers. He could freeze or even lower costs easily...by 1400 % as he said
Of course he won't
