This is really good to see: Miki Sherrill just put out a statement sharply criticizing the Senate Dems' pending cave in the government shutdown, ripping it as "malpractice" and a betrayal of the people who are "counting on us to fight for them." Sherrill knows what drove her victory. Wake up, Dems.

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard.
We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions.
We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.

If Chuck Schumer was a stronger leader, he would have been able to convince most of these senators to hold the line.

Please change your vote to no. I am one of your constituents and a furloughed federal worker. This deal will result in many folks losing their healthcare coverage - that is not what I stand for and neither should you.

Senator, you got almost nothing, other than (maybe) reversing Trump's latest, largely illegal threats and a tenuous promise for a future vote on healthcare. You all need to be better, tougher negotiators, or to give up your seats to new members who understand power dynamics & are willing to fight.

If I were @schumer.senate.gov, I would not agree to help Republicans fund this regime on the "promise" of an ACA vote at a later date. It didn't work the last time when they promised to fund DC. It won't work this time either. The House won't touch it.

Caving on a deal that doesn’t fix health care is, and always has been, a giant betrayal of the American people.
Hold the line. Save health care. I’m a NO on anything that doesn’t extend ACA subsidies.
