I want everyone to be crystal clear on why the shutdown is happening: people in congress do not want the rest of the country to have access to government healthcare, so they refused to pass a new budget for this fiscal year.
I also want everyone to understand this about congress: every single person elected to both the house and senate has excellent, free, government provided healthcare.
Also they’re getting paid while millions of people are not.
this is something that everyone should understand about that moment. It was hypocrisy, blatant and adamant.
Thank you for this
