1. What about the income testing for the ACA?

I don't see that on there and last I heard it was part of the Senate bill.

3. She said that was already part of the ACA to begin with. Already in there from before.

5. They got billions.

As soon as the shutdown started the senate should have withdrawn the CR with the 886 billion, which was their honest attempt to avert the shutdown. And tried to replace it with a CR with a realistic number that they were happy with. Now they again start negotiations with a number very close to Ryans unrealistic number.

7. Unfortunately, this does not go away

In three months we will be back where we started.
