“Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) said Friday that Democrats would vote to end the government shutdown in exchange for a one-year extension of expiring ACA tax credits,“ Axios reports.
“Democrats, emboldened by sweeping election victories this week, are adamant that Republicans must make concessions on health care before opening the government.”
“But Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) rejected the offer, calling it a ‘non-starter.’”
