Republicans have kept the government shut down for 23 days and counting. Over a million federal workers without pay, sure is an innovative way to start a rebellion/revolution.
Yes because republicans drive innovation. Democrats just want everyone to change their gender

Oh really? Which pundit gave you THAT talking point? NewsMax, FOX News? Immigrants need an SSN to receive benefits. Do you know who doesn’t have SSNs? Illegal immigrants, they aren’t citizens and aren’t entitled to benefits.

The funding bill is supposed to extend credits for the ACA to keep millions of Americans on ObamaCare, so people can continue to afford healthcare.

When it comes down to republicans wanting to strip the right of affordable healthcare from millions of Americans who depend on it VS democrats fighting anyway they can to defend that right, it’s a no brainer who to vote for. Republicans can’t govern and you can’t think for yourself.

False, despite Medicaid being federally funded, its state administered and various states don’t require a social security number to receive Medicaid.

California is one example. Also, why are Democrats trying to repeal a recently passed provision that prohibits illegal immigrants from receiving any federally funded healthcare even if it’s state administered? https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c3vzyl5x15ro.amp

Extending ACA deadlines doesn't help illegal immigrants, and not extending them helps nobody and hurts a lot of people. Citizens will not be able to keep up with the cost of healthcare if an alternative isn't worked out, if the ACA isn't going to be extended.
