“By the way, there’s a lot of Republicans in Minnesota,” Sen. Tina Smith, whose state is targeted for cuts, told POLITICO. “So they’re trying to retaliate against me .. and the result is all Minnesotans’ utility bills go up? .. That’s so stupid.”

TYPING SOMETHING IN ALL CAPS STILL DOESN'T MAKE IT TRUE.
A sixty-year-old couple in Mankato making $89,000 combined will pay an EXTRA $1500 every single month just to get health insurance if we don’t get a shutdown deal.
That’s why we’re fighting so hard.
Health insurance rates aren’t released in December, they’re released this month. We have to deal with this now or a lot more people are going to be priced out of health insurance.
They’re bullying Minnesotans because I had the AUDACITY to ask to negotiate a deal to help my constituents afford to live in a broken health care system.

Minnesota: Split bipartisan legislature.
Kept the government open. Invested in improving lives. Responsible budget cuts.
Washington: Republicans control House, Senate, Oval Office.
Government shutdown. Driving up health care costs by thousands. Skyrocketing national debt.

I was sent this by a Georgian this morning. 2025 premiums vs 2026 premiums for someone making $65k a year.
Republicans in Washington did this.
This is what I'm fighting to stop. This is what’s at stake in this shutdown fight.
Archie and I are wishing everyone observing Yom Kippur this year an easy and meaningful fast. G’mar Chatimah Tovah.
The government is shut down. For those just tuning in, here’s what happened:
1) We said we needed to help Americans pay their health insurance bills.
2) Republicans hated the idea and stonewalled us.
3) They shut down the government (which they control all chambers of) without negotiating.
All because we wanted to help Americans pay their health care costs in a broken system that is about to get even more expensive.
So: what the hell is going on?
Showing up to work to avoid a shutdown is apparently a minimum threshold Republicans can’t be bothered to meet.

Republicans clearly flunked civics in high school.
Undocumented immigrants CAN'T get Medicare, Medicaid, or healthcare tax credits. It’s against the law.
These guys lie because the facts are not on their side.
Undocumented immigrants aren’t even *allowed* to access Medicare, Medicaid or ACA credits.
Republicans like Randy are going to spike your health insurance premiums, but they REALLY want you to blame an immigrant instead.
At least 21,000,000 Americans will see their premiums increase under Republicans’ budget.
This is a lie (and he knows it, but how else you gonna get on CNN every day)
Their playbook for everything is to throw in the words 'illegal immigrants' when they know they’re losing to distract Americans from the fact they're screwing YOU over.
YOUR premiums could skyrocket; it’s because of Republicans.

Sure it’s tough to find a new job or afford a home or groceries, but Trump has doubled his net worth since taking office by profiting off the presidency.
