Not many people are talking about the children being harmed by #ICELawlessness but it's important to talk about.

Hey, @schumer.senate.gov!
Americans gave you a clear assignment last Tuesday, and you didn’t understand it.
Now, we are giving you another one: Step down and allow a Democrat with a spine to unite your caucus for the good of all Americans.
Remember what you told Biden? Now, tell it to yourself.

Yet you couldn't convince your caucus to fight for us
It's the final straw that breaks the back of your tenure as leader, Senator

Democrats have been fighting for months to address America's healthcare crisis
For the millions who will lose coverage
For people with cancer who won't get the care they need
For working families who can't afford to pay $25K more a year for healthcare

So “just trust us, we’ll deal with it later” is not a serious plan.

Even if an extension of the ACA credits were to get 60 votes in the Senate, there is no guarantee whatsoever that Mike Johnson will allow a vote on that language in the House.
The Speaker alone controls what comes to the floor.
