Top Senate Democrat Chuck Schumer offered a new plan to Republicans that would allow the U.S. government to reopen after a shutdown that began on Oct. 1.
But Republicans quickly dismissed Schumer’s proposal, which hinges on protecting enhanced Affordable Care Act subsidies for at least one year.
Schumer’s proposal calls for Democrats to agree to pass a so-called clean resolution that would provide short-term funding for government operations.

Democrats: we want to keep things as they are, not make them significantly worse

I’m not from the US, but my understanding is that the democratic party only want one thing? Namely the continuation of subsidies for health care for the less fortunate (not undocumented immigrants).
Given the US is the only first world nation without Universal Health Care, that doesn’t sound like “a bunch of shit” to me.
Oh! So you’re the target demographic for all the propaganda. Ok, got it.
“We will reopen”? It’s not them blocking it.
Wait what is the USA doing with all the tariff money it’s generating?! /s
