Hakeem Jeffries Dodges Question on Policies in the Dem Party: We Want to Make Sure That We’re Solving Problems
RUSH EXCERPT:
JEFFRIES: "Well, we want to make sure that we are solving problems on behalf of the American people, and that‘s in every possible area. It is clear that what unites Democrats, for instance, we forcefully have been pushing back against the one big ugly bill and the effort to enact the largest cut to Medicaid in American history. That‘s a disgrace. And clearly that needs to be reversed. We need to make sure that we do things like extending the Affordable Care Act tax credits so that more than 20 million people actually can have health care that they can afford, restored to them, as opposed to the situation that they confront right now because of MAGA extremist policies, which is that they‘ve experienced dramatic increases in their health insurance premiums and in some cases, more than $1,000 per month. It certainly is the case, as we‘ve already demonstrated unanimously on the house floor, that we need to stop this reckless and costly war of choice that has skyrocketed gas prices on everyday Americans. And we need to stop the Trump tariffs, which have increased costs on everyday Americans by thousands of dollars per year."
