News: USA Today | Progressive group calls for Sen. Chuck Schumer to resign “Chuck Schumer should step down as Senate Minority Leader immediately... If he secretly backed this surrender and voted 'no' to save face, he’s a liar. If he couldn’t keep his caucus in line, he's inept. Either way, he’s proven incapable of leading the fight to prevent health care premiums from skyrocketing for millions of Americans. The country can’t afford his failed leadership any longer.”

The GOP has already violated the deal. The Dems must now back away.

GOP RENEGS ON SHUTDOWN DEAL If any of the traitorous eight need a reason to flip back, here it is: "Democratic... senators who caved to support the Republicans’ continuing resolution Sunday claimed that they'd MANAGED TO SECURE A HOUSE VOTE on a bill ensuring the continuance of Affordable Care Act subsidies... Johnson WOULDN'T EVEN COMMIT to the vote Monday as reporters shouted after the fleeing Republican with questions about his plans."

This is the epitome of cowardice. While much anger should be directed at the traitorous eight. A very special place in history should be reserved for this quisling.

It's hard to find reporting on what Dems voted Yes, but think it was: King (ME) 202 224-5344 Hassan (NH) 202 224-3324 Durbin (IL) 202 224-2152 Shaheen (NH) 202 224-2841 Cortez Masto (NV) 202 224-3542 Kaine (VA) 202 224-4024 Rosen (NV) 202 224-6244 Fetterman (PA) 202 224-4254 Maybe they would like to hear from you. @npub1ejmn...g9td

Think that the Dems who voted with Republicans were Durbin, Rosen, Cortez Masto, King, Kaine, Fetterman, Shaheen, Hassan.
