House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries on the government funding bill: “Our expectation that the House will vote at some point tomorrow, and House Democrats will strongly oppose any legislation that does not decisively address the Republican health care crisis.”“We want to reopen the government. We‘ll continue to stand by our hardworking federal employees and civil servants. But we have a responsibility to make sure that we extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits so that tens of millions of Americans don‘t experience dramatically increased health care costs that‘s going to prevent them from being able to see a doctor when they need one.”
