Bill Pascrell: “Instead, we are here talking about holding government funding hostage in exchange for decimating the Affordable Care…”

“Instead, we are here talking about holding government funding hostage in exchange for decimating the Affordable Care Act. Enough is enough. Remember when the guy threw the window up in that movie ``Network''? We are not going to take it anymore. The Republican budget would result in 16 million fewer Americans having health insurance and a 20 percent increase in insurance premiums. A vote for this bill is a vote against those 16 million Americans. A vote for this bill is a vote for higher premiums. On top of that, this budget doesn't even balance. After 2025, deficits under this budget would begin to skyrocket. It is not a balanced budget. This is a fake. Why don't we sit down and come up with a mutual plan instead of ``a bipartisan fraud''?”
