People are deciding to go without health insurance next year because the costs are so high.
We need to be talking about extending the ACA tax credits so that people can afford their health insurance.
And we're not doing that.
We're talking about stupid stuff, stuff that is...
probably not even going to be considered by the Senate, that is going nowhere.
I mean, again, a functioning Congress means that we do the work of the American people.
And I'd like to think, no matter what your politics may be, making sure that we are addressing issues of affordability, which includes the cost of health care, are front and center.
I mean, if the Republicans have a plan, then bring the plan to us.
Let's debate it and vote on it.
They've got nothing.
Well, let's talk about health care, because Republicans put up a bill in the Senate yesterday.
It failed.
Then the Democratic plan failed.
The Democratic plan, of course, would extend Obamacare subsidies.
The Republican plan produced by Bill Cassidy would have health savings accounts.
Congressman, I spoke with Nicole Malia-Takis yesterday, who has signed on to a bipartisan effort in the House, D's and R's, that would extend the subsidies, would add some eligibility benefits.
controls as well, because someone like Nicole Malliotakis is not a fan of the Affordable Care Act, as she told us yesterday.
Let's listen.
Okay, but this is unlikely to see the floor unless the discharge petition makes that happen.
And even if we do the discharge petition route, we won't be able to get to it until probably in early January.
