Yes. Nothing yet but it sounds like Senate Democrats want to cave.

Why do you think that from that article? Sounds to me like there will be a shut down, at least for a few days, til GOP agrees to fund the ACA. [/quote]

“ House Democrats have publicly and privately fretted that Senate Democrats could reverse course and vote to advance GOP-backed funding legislation after most House Democrats opposed it. Helping fuel that concern, several Senate Democrats have sidestepped questions over the past week about what they might do if Republicans moved toward formal negotiations on the Obamacare subsidies.”[/quote]

In case it wasn't clear, the House Democrats have been concerned that Schumer will cave again. They don't want him to.[/quote]

The House reconvenes Tuesday at noon. I think there will be a Kabuki Theatre shutdown as the Republicans wait to see if Gillibrand can get the eight Dems necessary to break the filibuster. With Schumer sympathetic but needing to fend off AOC’s primary challenge, she’ll run out of time.

Republicans will then revise the House CR to say OK we’ll discuss the subsidies. That’s enough for Schumer and they’ll pass the CR in time for everyone to be back at work by Friday, or Monday if they want to give a long weekend.[/quote]

No, they won't do the subsidies. Trump and Vought are itching to shut down the government so they can blame Dems and [b]trigger mass layoffs[/b]. [/quote]

Absolutely nothing stops them from doing this regardless of an appropriation.[/quote]
