My extended thoughts on the shutdown caused by the irresponsible actions of the House GOP.

We’re not going to be disrespected, We have to get something out of this. And I don’t know what that even is.

Speaker Boehner wants to negotiate. Great. Here’s what each side is looking for.
Who exactly is being unreasonable here?

Don’t let the messaging obfuscate who is behind the shutdown…It’s these folks.

You know what’s not shut down? The new HealthCare.gov website. Get covered today.
Congressman Mark Takano

As of midnight tonight, the United States Federal Government has officially shut down due to a lack of appropriations.

The actions taken in recent days by Speaker Boehner and the House Republicans have been shameful. They have pulled nearly every legislative trick in the book to force Senate Leader Reid to give in to their unyielding demand to strip health care away from millions of Americans.

Whether a deal is struck in the next few hours or not, my office will be open tomorrow and will continue to serve the residents of California’s 41st Congressional District. It is a commitment that I made and, despite Congress’ failings, one I will continue to uphold.

The most recent plan by House Republicans that would delay the Obamacare by a year would remove many provisions that American families depend on.
Who would be helped by a year delay of Obamacare exactly?
