5,698 days since the Affordable Care Act was signed into law, Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga. 14th) laments Republicans have no plan to address rising healthcare costs.
Her grievance comes 27 days into the government shutdown under Republican leadership in the White House and Congress over expiring subsides implemented to keep healthcare costs affordable for millions of Americans.
The Republican majority is demanding Democrats agree to their bill to let the subsides expire and have so far offered nothing in return, going so far as to deliberately close channels for negotaition.
Republicans in the Senate, who could end the shutdown immediately by invoking the nuclear option, have instead chosen to put forth the bill 13 times, each time expecting a different outcome despite changing nothing.
This strategy has so far been unsuccessful.

>Rep. Marjorie Taylor Green (R-Ga.) on Tuesday called out House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) for not providing any plans on a Republican alternative to the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and tax subsidies set to expire at the end of the year.

>“You left out that I said I have no respect for the House not being in session passing our bills and the President’s executive orders,” Greene wrote on social platform X, in response to a post from Punchbowl News’s Jake Sherman following a recent GOP conference call.

>“And I demanded to know from Speaker Johnson what the Republican plan for healthcare is to build the off-ramp off Obamacare and the ACA tax credits to make health insurance affordable for Americans,” she added.

>“Johnson said he’s got ideas and pages of policy ideas and committees of jurisdiction are working on it, but he refused to give one policy proposal to our GOP conference on our own conference call,” the Georgia Republican continued. “Apparently I have to go into a SCIF to find out the Republican healthcare plan!!!”
>>
>During the call, Greene also said Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) “needs to use the nuclear option and reopen the government,” according to Sherman, who translated it as, “(In other words, abolish the filibuster and pass a funding bill).

>The comments come after Johnson said Monday that House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) was working with the heads of three committees to develop a Republican health care plan.

>Greene and Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) have been among Republicans who see health care premiums as being a serious risk to their campaigns in the 2026 midterms.

>Democrats have held firm against Republicans during the government shutdown in their effort to put a spotlight on health care subsidies that will expire at the end of the year, jumping insurance prices and potentially leaving millions without health coverage.

>Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) earlier this month defended Greene’s pressure on House Republican leaders to return to Washington to address health care premiums, calling her “absolutely right.”

>“So, hold on to your hats,” Schumer said at the time. “I think this is the first time I said this, but, on this issue, Representative Greene said it perfectly.”

>According to a recent poll sponsored by Undue Medical Debt and led by the nonpartisan research firm PerryUndem, 69 percent of respondents believe health care is too expensive.

Her greivance comes from Trump, Thune and Johnson cucking her out of a senate run in Georgia. Shrimple as.

What happened to MTG?
>>
>>1452949
don't worry, King Trump promised back in 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2020 that it would only be two weeks until he had a plan for healthcare. I'm sure it'll be any day now.
>>
>>1452985
Is it Infrastructure Week again?
>>
>>1452985
Oh but anon, they had AHCA! That plan that was so dogshit it cost them the 2018 midterms and they promptly memory-holed it and refused to acknowledge ever since? That surely counts, right?
>>
>>1452972
She either had some genuine epiphany that maybe the government should actually serve the people, she was a true Epstein file believer and the way her fellow conservatives handled it disgusted her, she sees a sinking ship and is a rat trying to flee, someone put her on a mood stabilizer finally, and/or she’s mad at Trump because she’s not getting the special treatment she used to get.

Some people are too stupid to go along with the party lies when they consistently fail to deliver on promises.

Can't afford food stamps for white Americans, can afford a 20 BILLION dollar bailout for Argentina. How is that America first?
>>
>>1453023
Telling able-bodied adults without dependents that they need to have a job if they want public benefits sounds pretty America first to me, tbh. Seems like it would improve American society overall
>>
>>1453030
Most people on benefits work
>>
>>1453035
Then most people won't have their benefits affected whatsoever, Since we are discussing the subset that are able-bodied working age adults without dependents
>>
>>1453036
Except that because of the Republican shutdown they are about to lose SNAP
>>
>>1453044
There are more illegals on SNAP than American citizens. Also, almost everyone on SNAP sells their card for 50% value every month.
>>
>>1453051
How far in your ass did you have to dig for those stats?
>>
>>1453054
Every illegal family is on SNAP in the US. All of them
>>
>>1453055
Man if it's so easy for illegals to get onto it, why aren't poor americans doing it? Are they stupid?
>>
>>1452949
look when you subsidies to deal with the high health care costs the people are still paying for it because they pay for it with taxes. It doesn't fix the problem of the costs being to high. It's a load of bullshit because you're insurance premiums will go down but your taxes go up. You're still paying. It's a total fucking con job. fix this crap already.
>>
>>1453070
>why aren't poor americans doing it?
They are?
>>
>>1453070
Are you retarded?
>>
>>1453076
right? why can't we all just line up to have the insurance companies fuck our asses
its cheaper than taxes, and insurance CEOs can just slam ass all day long
win/win
>>
>>1453081
In order to save costs we literally just let them have sex with us. i like it and that plan could get enough votes to pass.
>>
>>1453051
Open your bible and review the story of Lot, that will clear this issue up for you.
>>
>>1453077
Oh, so it isn't just illegals then?
