So if you’re a federal worker who works on fossil fuel permitting, you’re golden. But if you’re a federal worker who oversees the safety of our nuclear weapons stockpile, you’re sent home. Trump & @HouseGOP are playing games with Americans’ health care—and now also with nuclear

MAGA Republicans have kept our government shut down for over two weeks. They refuse to negotiate, but I refuse to let more than 270,000 Louisianians risk losing their health care. They’re blocking paychecks for federal workers because we won’t turn our backs on American families.

Yesterday, I spoke before the House Democratic Steering & Policy Committee about how families in our Capital Region will suffer if Republicans allow ACA tax credits to expire. That’s why Democrats will keep fighting for a budget that protects affordable health care for all.

Donald Trump is sending $40 BILLION to his buddy in Argentina, but he can't find a penny to help hardworking Americans afford their health care. So much for America first.

Who is at the center of this fight for the future of the Affordable Care Act and its enhanced premium tax credits? Small business owners, their employees and the self-employed — like @MamaJsRVA’s Lester Johnson, whose health insurance costs would double if Republicans strip away
