In the most predictable development ever, Mike Johnson is not committing to hold a House vote on ACA subsidies

The people were on our side. We were building momentum to help save our democracy. We could have won - the premium increase notices were just starting.
And giving in now will embolden him. Things will likely get worse.
Speaker Johnson has literally said he's "not promising anyone anything."
For once, I believe him.

Not one.
The arrogance of a Senator who is not even running again to take the lead in undermining the Caucus and the voters.

In our system, it could mean the end of the two party system. Neither party can represent the pro-democracy majority. It's time for something new.
This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.
Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.
This is exactly whatโs wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.
We spent months working to rebuild the Democratic brand in the eyes of young voters who wanted leaders who'd fight for them.
Senate Democrats just lit all that work on fire.
Senator Schumer is no longer effective and should be replaced. If you canโt lead the fight to stop healthcare premiums from skyrocketing for Americans, what will you fight for?

1) Permanent ACA subsidies
2) Medicaid funding restored
3) No more blank checks for the regime (rescission)
They dropped Medicaid immediately. Went silent on rescission. Cut back to 1 year of subsidies on Friday. And surrendered today.
The Senate Democrats!
This is a bad deal for Americans.
Voters turned out in record numbers last wk to elect Democrats believing they would fight for working families.
We urge Senate Dems to vote NO on the reported GOP budget package, which fails to address the devastating health care crisis.
Sanders: That is a totally meaningless gesture. You can get 100 votes here and it won't mean anything because the House is not going to take it up.
