I know people are hurting in this Schumer shutdown. That’s why I’ve sponsored two bills to use emergency funds for SNAP and extend Affordable Care subsidies. But Democrats must reopen the government so we can deliver for the American people.

The American people deserve a transparent appropriations process—which is what Republicans are working to deliver. It’s time for Democrats to join us to end the Schumer shutdown and reopen government for the American people.

Democrats know they’re hurting the American people by keeping the government shutdown. But they don’t care. Because to them it’s “leverage." It’s cruel and it MUST end.

I’ve voted 13 times to reopen the government so federal workers in PA can get their paychecks and SNAP benefits can continue to reach those in need. The way out of the Schumer Shutdown hasn’t changed. Five more Democrats need to vote to reopen the government.

It’s now the 8th day of the government shutdown. Democrats and Republicans must come together to reopen the government and extend premium tax credits that help lower health care costs. These credits make coverage more affordable for millions. We need action now.

It’s Day 36 of the Schumer Shutdown. Democrats are still forcing the American people to suffer for “leverage.” The American people aren’t pawns. End the Schumer Shutdown.

This woman says Americans should be “outraged” over what Barack Obama did to our healthcare system “This is such a scam” “So I just went down the Affordable Care Act rabbit hole, and I'm genuinely shocked that Americans are not more outraged about this entire thing. The Affordable Care Act subsidies that the Democrats are requiring to extend in order to reopen our government are subsidies that are paid with taxpayers money Obama said, "You must use the Affordable Care Plan or pay a fine or get insurance elsewhere. You must have insurance. You must use Obamacare. It will be affordable." And then, it ended up not being affordable at all, so we had to subsidize the cost of it with taxpayer money that is paid directly to insurance companies who are causing the driving up of health care costs in the first place. This is such a scam and people aren't outraged? Like, it sounds so noble that the Democrats want people to have affordable health care, but Obama forced people to have affordable health care that wasn't affordable at all so taxpayers have to pay it, but we pay it directly to the private insurance companies that make health care unaffordable. — This is wild”

The Trump Administration can use funds to buy two luxury jets for Noem during their government shutdown but they can’t use emergency funding to feed hungry children. The hypocrisy. What they’re doing is cruel and unacceptable. They can and they must fund SNAP for November.

Sen. John Kennedy slams Democrats for still being angry Trump won and for forcing a Schumer shutdown: "The Democrats are angry—and they’re angry for two reasons. They’re angry because President Trump won the election. The American people spoke. My Democratic colleagues need to drink a big old glass of ‘get over it’ and let’s move on. Number two, they’re mad that the American people are upset about the shutdown. It was so needless. Senator Schumer eagerly wanted to become the face of this shutdown. I was looking at a poll today showing what the American people think of Senator Schumer. In the opinion of the American people, Senator Schumer is a wet match in a dark cave."

I hope just 5 more Senate Democrats can see the shutdown for what it is: Not pain for Republicans, not pain for President Trump, but pain for the American people. Let’s reopen the government and stop the suffering.

Leader Schumer may think that every day this shutdown continues gets better for Democrats, but every single day that Democrats refuse to open the government, the consequences get worse for the American people.

.Margaret Brennan: When you were talking about the extension of the health care subsidies, why isn't the promise to hold a vote on those health care subsidies enough for Democrats to vote to reopen the government? New Jersey Gov.-elect Mikie Sherrill: “I think we have seen what the promises that Republicans have made have been worth. What he needs to do is actually put the subsidies in. We can serve the American people, we can drive down health care costs, and that's really key.”

Emergency SNAP funds are a short-term patch and they’ll run out in two weeks. Then what? We still won’t be able to pay our troops or feed our kids. The only way forward is for Democrats to reopen the government.

We’ve seen this movie before. Democrats are taking irresponsible action to hold the government hostage. A Schumer Shutdown helps no one. Trying to show resistance by hurting the American people is not leadership.

🚨MAJOR BREAKING: Chuck Schumer has offered Republicans a deal to reopen the government if they extend the Affordable Care Act subsidies for ONE YEAR. Republicans must accept the deal or FOREVER be remembered as the party who chose Trump and cruelty over the lives of millions.
