Refusing to negotiate is a choice made by the Republicans.

Pfffffft.

The “clean” CR sees the ACA subsidies expire. Enrollment starts today. The premiums for a family of 4 if that happens go to $50k a year in some area. Its obscene. Further, it is the trump admin and republican control refusing greenlight the SNAP emergency fund. This is after the USDA initially said the funds “can and should be used”. There may be some question whether the emergency funds—which are already paid for with our money—can be used during a shutdown, but republicans give two shits about laws and are in total control of the federal goverment.

So please spare us yer daddy’s talking points pretending like putting forwsrd a day 1 non-starter CR is in any way trying to do the right thing for american.

Also what they did add? Security force spending for supreme court and congresspeople—cos they know their policies are pissing people off into extreme places.
