I'm voting yes tomorrow.
It's time for the government to be reopened and end this shutdown created by Chuck Schumer and the Democrats.
To be blunt, we're still not even sure what they shut the government down for in the first place.
But we're excited to get back to work and get this to the president's desk as quickly as possible.
No, we don't.
There's been a lot of work in this regard the entire year.
That's number one.
Number two, everybody knows at this point that one of the ways we're going to be able to get our spending under control, which is a major concern for the bond markets and our credit rating agencies,
is we're going to have to streamline the federal government across the board.
Part of that has been giving workers an opportunity to leave the federal workforce.
Some of them have been provided bonuses on their way out the door.
And so I think this is going to continue.
But, you know, we have a temporary measure that we have to get through here, and we're going to do that and get the government reopened.
No, I think that's something that John Thune in the Senate has to go through.
Let's talk real quickly about these Obamacare subsidies that were part of one of the things that Democrats were talking about.
Let's first be clear, Democrats were arguing for like five different things over the last 40 days, and that's how you know that their negotiations weren't serious.
This was much more about politics from the Democratic left and politics from Chuck Schumer trying to save his job as Senate Minority Leader.
But to the specific issue about Obamacare subsidies, what the Democrats have been telling the American people consistently is that they need more subsidies to cover up the true cost of healthcare.
And these subsidies are on top of the existing structure of subsidies built into the law of the Affordable Care Act.
So in short, more subsidies is not gonna fix Obamacare.
