People are pissed about the Senate. I am, too.

That’s why it’s so important that House Democrats continue to fight like hell for affordable health care (and hopefully get a few Rs to join us).

Silver lining: Rep. Grijalva can now be sworn inβ€”which gives us the votes to release the Epstein files.

1/2 The shutdown β€œdeal” revolves around a wink and a nod that Sen. Thune will hold a vote on lowering healthcare premiums in December.

That doesn’t guarantee it will happen. It also doesn’t guarantee it will pass.

How the Trump Administration Is Giving Even More Tax Breaks to the Wealthy

"Hundreds of billions of dollars in new breaks for big businesses and investors... contributing hundreds of billions of dollars to the federal deficit, on top of the trillions that the legislation signed by Trump in July is already adding to the deficit..."

Bernie Sanders: "What this Senate is about to do is make a horrific situation even worse. So let's be clear what this vote is about. If this vote succeeds, over 20 million Americans are gonna see at least a doubling in their premiums in the ACA."

Health insurance premiums for ACA plans set to skyrocket in Maine if tax credits expire Whether to extend the subsidies is at the center of the federal shutdown fight.

That includes about 8,000 of his Maine constituents that he will screw over.
We expect that from Collins but not King.

New: Sens. King, Shaheen, Hassan led negotiations on a deal that will have enough Democratic support to pass in the Senate, I'm told.

This is the package:

- CR thru Jan 30
- A vote on a ACA bill by a December, on a DEM bill
- Minibus WHICH INCLUDES reversal of shutdown RIFs and back pay and protections against them happening in the future
PLUS SNAP is funded through the fiscal year 26

Dems have spent the past two months saying they're fighting to address the crisis of spiking healthcare costs and now they're caving for a deal that does nothing to address healthcare costs Β―\_(ツ)_/Β―

Senators reach tentative deal to end the government shutdown The deal, negotiated by a group of Democrats and GOP leaders, funds the government through Jan. 30. If it passes, it will still need to clear the House, which will likely take days.

As a Mainer, I’m PISSED. Angus King sold MILLIONS of Americans out. Call him now! #MEpolitics

Mills has already said she's working on what she can do.

What will YOU do?

Is your campaign donating to food banks?

Are you personally?

Are you encouraging your supporters to donate to food banks instead of some donations they would make to your campaign?

Words are the easy part of campaigns.

My expert political opinion is that killing the job market, raising grocery prices, kicking people off their health care, stealing taxpayer money, and trying to starve 40 million Americans is pretty damn unpopular.

For Lewiston. For all victims of gun violence. For those with unmet mental health needs.

We together say, β€œnot one more!”
