This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.
Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.
This is exactly whatβs wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

Deal to end shutdown gains traction in US Senate as vote nears β’ Tennessee Lookout
A deal was within reach Sunday night to end a government shutdown when it appeared enough U.S. Senate Democrats had agreed to join Republicans.
A deal was within reach Sunday night to end the longest federal government shutdown in history, when it appeared enough U.S. Senate Democrats had agreed to join Republicans: it doesn't address skyrocketing premiums for those enrolled in health insurance plans in the Affordable Care Act Marketplace.
