Democratic lawmakers are demanding that any deal to reopen the federal government address expiring #healthcare subsidies that have made #HealthInsurance more affordable for millions of Americans. They also want any government funding bill to reverse the #Medicaid cuts in #Trump’s big tax breaks & spending cuts bill passed this summer.

#Republican #House Speaker #MikeJohnson has refused to negotiate with #Democrats until they first agree to reopen the government.
This is now the second-longest #shutdown.
The longest shutdown occurred during Trump’s first term over his demands for funds to build the US-Mexico border wall. That one ended in 2019 after 35 days.
