Democrats see ObamaCare leverage in spending fights

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

House Democrats want to use the looming battle over government spending and raising the debt limit as leverage to shore up ObamaCare.

The minority party believes Republicans will need their votes on the critical fiscal issues, and they think they can secure concessions on healthcare.

“We could make some kind of provisions part of our negotiations on spending in September,” Rep. John Yarmuth (D-Ky.), the ranking member of the Budget Committee, told The Hill as Congress was leaving town.

He suggested Democrats attach provisions stabilizing the Affordable Care Act (ACA) to must-pass spending legislation.
“I’m sure we’ll discuss that,” he said.

The government would shut down on Oct. 1 without a new spending measure. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin has set a Sept. 29 deadline for raising the nation’s borrowing limit, a date that suggests the two measures could be tied together for simplicity.

1. Yesterday change the Landscape in this Country.

Trump and his Crime Syndicate are so weakened by what their deer Leader did with his Tweets. And with all the looming protests that are currently happening and are about to happen. GOP Movers and Shakers are most likely doing inventory as to do we really want to be associated with this group or do we pack up and sit it out till after the 2018 elections.

This is the Democratic Party's chance to turn this ugly moment to their advantage or piss it away once again and go sit in the corner with thumbs up their collective arses. One only knows there will be one major push by Ryan and McConnell to salvage their twisted agenda and then it is full on Campaign Mode for the GOP.

The Koch Brothers,Waltons,Mercer's,Adelson and other Right Wing Money Bags want their 1.1 Trillion Dollar pay off for putting Trump in the Oval Office,it will be up to you and me to beat the bushes for any and all information necessary to put a stop to it.
