The accusations of Republicans are absolute nonsense, as is heir custom.
“Asked by CNBC’s Becky Quick, “Is it true you want to restore American taxpayer benefits to illegal immigrants?” Jeffries replied, “Of course not.”
“And thank you for asking that question, because this is also an outright lie,” Jeffries said.
“Federal law prohibits the use of taxpayer dollars to provide medical coverage to undocumented individuals,” he said. “That’s the law, and there is nothing in anything that we have proposed that is trying to change that law.”
Dems want any budget to include an extension of the ACA tax credits due to expire in a couple of months, something that will cause millions of Americans’ health care prices to rise.
Trump in response not only wants to fuck Americans on healthcare, but threaten the jobs of many more middle class federal workers as a cruel bargaining chip. Why aren’t we tired of this shit yet? Trump had 2 government shutdowns his first term and he’s about to have another. I don’t want to hear the Right saying a damn thing about 1.5 trillion when they just supported Trump passing the BBB which will add 5.5 trillion in debt.
Why so many Americans are fine with the GOP shitting all over them, and Dems somehow end up getting a black eye for trying to fight for people’s healthcare is beyond me.
