I really don't.

It's not right.

The overwhelming majority of Democrats are standing firm because we recognize that the health care crisis is not looming.

It is upon us.

Republicans have already enacted the largest cut to Medicaid in American history.

That was part of their one big ugly bill.

Hospitals and nursing homes and community-based health clinics are closing because of Republican malignant action.

What's clear is that the American people know who shut the government down, and it's Donald Trump and Republicans.

That's clearly the American people, because Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the presidency.

And Republicans, the Trump administration, have been engaging in mass firings since the beginning of Donald Trump's presidency.

The government shuts down.

It's because Republicans have decided to shut the government down and hurt the American people.

We are not going to support a partisan Republican spending bill that continues to gut the health care of everyday Americans.

Period.

Full stop.

House Democrats are here.

Senate Democrats are here.

The Senate is ready to act.
