We're on day 6 of the Republican shutdown.
This could end TODAY if Republicans come to the table and negotiate with Democrats.
Instead, they're choosing to let this shutdown drag on and let your premiums skyrocket.

The President of the United States just opened the door to pardoning one of the most notorious child sex traffickers in history.
This should NOT even be under consideration.
What is he hiding? Release the Epstein files.
I just voted against another GOP funding bill that does NOTHING to keep your premiums from more than doubling.
I'm against the Republican shutdown and want to reopen the government—and we can do that as soon as Republican Leadership gets serious about negotiating.
ICYMI: Senate Republicans just blocked Democrats' bill that would reopen the government AND save health care for millions of Americans.
This is now the FIFTH time we've voted on this bill.
The Republican shutdown continues.
This is a clip from the HBO show Veep.
Still waiting on that Trump Health Care Plan, but even the President agrees that Republicans need to make a deal on health care.
Why is Republican Leadership in Congress REFUSING to reopen government and work with us to stop premiums from more than doubling?
Leaked clip of House Republicans.
As a small business owner in WA state, Stacya should be able to get health care for herself that doesn't bankrupt her.
I don't know who Republicans are talking to, but they need to WAKE UP.
We have to save the ACA tax credits, and we need to do it ASAP.
Republicans are telling us we have to wait to even talk about stopping health care premiums from doubling.
But billionaires didn't have to wait for the tax breaks they didn't even need?
Not OK. We need to get to work to save health care for Americans NOW.
The last three government shutdowns have happened while Donald Trump was President.
This shutdown, like all recent shutdowns, is a REPUBLICAN SHUTDOWN.
Enough with the chaos. Time for Republican leadership to work with Democrats to reopen government and save your health care.
Whenever Trump and Republicans talked about waste, fraud, and abuse, it was always projection.
Donald Trump's government is the most wasteful, fraudulent, and corrupt administration in American history.
This is just the tip of the iceberg.
I’m fighting to save health care for people like Leslie.
"[Without ACA tax credits], premiums would be $1,131/month. That's more than triple. And I'm telling you right now that's 25% of our combined income... It's simply not affordable. So, what are we going to do?"
JD Vance is outright LYING when he says Democrats are giving health care to illegal immigrants in our funding bill. How do I know? Because I wrote it!
Undocumented immigrants are NOT eligible for federal health care programs. But our bill DOES stop your premiums from doubling next year.
After shutting down the government, House Republicans went on vacation all this week.
Now they're on vacation ALL NEXT WEEK, TOO. It's absurd.
No one should pretend Republicans care about reopening government or saving your health care.
Democrats are here working to reopen government & save health care.
House Republicans aren't even in town, and Speaker Johnson is saying nothing we negotiate can be put into writing. That doesn't make sense.

It's sick, but not surprising, that Trump is trying to hurt people using his shutdown as a pretext for more mass firings.
He's trying to hurt people, Democrats are trying to help people by reopening government and saving their health care.
I know the people are on our side.
More blatant extortion attempts coming out of the White House this morning.
Trump and Vought are targeting projects in blue states to punish their political opposition by hurting regular people.
Everyone can see these crooks for what they are and none of us should be intimidated.
No President gets to dictate what schools teach. No college should be forced to support any political agenda or risk losing funding for cancer research.
It’s well past time for Republicans to join us—grow a spine—and oppose this latest illegal action to control our schools.
Telling Democrats "just give us your votes, talk to us later about health care" is NOT going to cut it.
I'm saying NO. Premiums are set to more than DOUBLE.
Republicans need to get serious about negotiations to reopen the government AND address the GOP health care crisis.
Democrats are here in the Capitol ready to reopen government AND stop health care premiums from more than doubling.
This is a REPUBLICAN SHUTDOWN.
