Quiver AI Summary

Senator Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) addressed the federal government shutdown, criticizing Republicans for proposing a $23 billion tax increase on the middle class, which he claims would worsen the financial burden on Americans already facing rising costs. He accuses Republicans of playing political games with people's lives as they control the White House and both chambers of Congress.

Gallego states that Democrats have been open to supporting a budget that would maintain the Affordable Care Act's premium tax credits, which help 13 million Americans. He warns that if Republicans eliminate these credits, millions could see their premiums double and lose coverage.
