On the first day of the 2013 government shutdown, Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-New York, had a message for Republicans who refused to fund the government unless Congress defunded Obamacare: Hostage-taking would not work.
"As we said a thousand times, we are happy to discuss how to fund the government, but not with a gun to our heads," Schumer said on the Senate floor.
"You are not going to get us to give in to extortion," he continued. "You are not going to take, as hostage, millions of innocent Americans and succeed in getting us to do something you want, and we don't, and they don't.

Sport, you fail to understand the popularity of healthcare in this country.
Perhaps you are too young to think you won't ever need it, but if you live long enough, your time will come.
Many MAGA depend on their healthcare (and their Social Security).
By refusing to fund healthcare, the GOP (Guardians of Pedophiles) are stabbing their own voters, not in the back, but right in the ❤ as they face them.

@sunsporter1649 New poll shows 47% of Americans blame Trump and the GOP for the shutdown, with 30% blaming Democrats and 23% apparently attempting to eat the microphone or drool on the reporter

@sunsporter1649 You have zero proof...just a tired old talking point lie.

@JSul3 Now tell us how illegal aliens were not getting free health care, free housing, free drivers licenses, and not voting

@sunsporter1649 you show me the proof that they were! By the way, if you are speaking of emergency screening in RTS as required by federal law, when did that law, EMTALA get passed and which president signed it into law?
