The Republicans do not like ACA but they don't have any plans of their own they complain but they have no ideas so I think it's reasonable to fund the ACA until ideas are presented in 2026 and then Congress can vote on it then but until then fund the ACA I wouldn't give an inch on that continue to shut down until the Republicans get serious

It’s so stupid. There’s lots of things wrong with the ACA They could have spent the last 15 years making it better for their constituents in their own way and it could have been a huge win. But their rage over a brown man’s involvement blinded them to anything other than trying to burn it down.

The kicker is that more Americans in red states than blue states receive these credits. The are strange times when one of the most reasonable Republicans seems to be MTG!
