Tonight, Senate Democrats will take over the Senate floor to fight back on how Republicans are doing nothing, NOTHING, on health care. Premiums are surging. Families are scared. This is urgent.
@SenSchumer “This is urgent” - then open the government, Chuckles. It’s all on you. Stop whining and do your damn job.
@SenSchumer YOU BUILT THAT. You'll be fighting against your own selves. You destroyed our healthcare system with Obamacare and want to keep HIDING that fact with BILLIONS of taxpayer $$ #RESIGN
@SenSchumer This is the Schumer Shutdown
@SenSchumer Instead of passing the CR, the Democrats are putting on performances at the expense of American families. Talk about a "Let them eat cake" moment.
@SenSchumer Does this mean you are now ready to vote for the stand alone bill to reopen the government and negotiate on healthcare? They are two separate issues and each deserving of a separate vote.
@SenSchumer Did not you and others on the democratic side just vote once again ( like the 13th time) to keep the government closed?
@SenSchumer SERIOUSLY #DEMOCRATS GET THE STORY STRAIGHT
@SenSchumer I would say opening the government and paying out programs and paychecks is urgent! Good news Chump! There is a clean CR you all keep voting no on that can fix those issues right now! Vote yes and stop using your constituents as leverage and holding their livelihoods hostage!
@SenSchumer So end the Schumer Shutdown. It’s clearly not helping you, Chuckles.
@SenSchumer "Every day (of the shutdown) gets better for us." -- Chuck Schumer. October 8, 2025
@SenSchumer Who passed the affordable care act? And what was affordable, just so we’re clear?
@SenSchumer If they don't care about feeding hungry kids that are already here, stop calling them pro-life. Cutting SNAP benefits is atrocious.
@SenSchumer Obamacare was supposed to be affordable. If it’s affordable, why does it need subsidized. This is bullshit and you know it. It has literally transformed everyone’s healthcare, and not for the better.
@SenSchumer You wrote this while voting NO. Stay classy Chuck “The Fuck” Schumer.
@SenSchumer Registered Democrat here: This is what we see when we look at you now. You’re an embarrassment to the party of JFK.
@SenSchumer I never thought I'd be agreeing with you but you're right on this. We have $40 billion for Argentina but nothing for the poor and starving Americans? Plenty for Israel & Ukraine but hey poor Americans...FU! Not cool!
@SenSchumer You're not fighting back, you're throwing a toddler tantrum because you're not getting your NGO pork. Fuck you. I hope the government stays shut down indefinitely at this point.
@SenSchumer You're the idiots who put all this in place. You never meant for it to be affordable, and now you're hoist on your own petard. Pass the CR, get to work, and fix it.
@SenSchumer When the subsidies stop flowing, healthcare becomes unaffordable. Meaning, it was never about healthcare. Just the cash flow.
@SenSchumer Oh good, more performative, obnoxious bullshit. Just pass the clean cr and reopen the government or shut the hell up.
@SenSchumer Man, it's the GOVERNMENT that SHOULD be doing NOTHING on healthcare. The AFFORDABLE care act was clearly nothing close to that, which is why you NEED to subsidize it to the tune of billions and billions of dollars. When do you admit that the government should not be involved in
@SenSchumer Does this translate into senate democrats holding unpaid workers hostage to listen to more poetry? Be honest
@SenSchumer Can't wait to miss every moment of your latest theater kid antics. Really looking forward to missing it all.
@SenSchumer It is urgent. And it’s your fault. Obamacare was yours, or did you forget that? Not one republican voted for it. Now you want to double down and spend $1.5 trillion to pay for illegals healthcare. Sit back down.
@SenSchumer Idk!🤷🏽♂️ i do remember ACA was enacted by democrats, and do remember that the subsidies were also enacted by democrats.
@SenSchumer Premiums are surging. Subsidies paid for with debt are not a sustainable solution
@SenSchumer You’ve lost Chucky. https://x.com/claytravis/statu...
@SenSchumer Crap insurance isn't "health care", Chuck. 😬 Fortunately, only 7% on your crap ACA/Obamacare plans.
@SenSchumer Do you know what a CR is Chucky? It has NOTHING to do with health care.
@SenSchumer You created Obamacare. Don’t you think you’ve done enough?
@SenSchumer They haven't gone up at all yet. Wait until rates go up. You can fix it retroactively. Stop playing politics all the damn time.
@SenSchumer You had 4 years to fix this and now this is urgent. Give me a break. You’re a day late and a 1.5 trillion short.
@SenSchumer Pass the CR Chuck, it’s really that simple. #SchumerShutdown
