Description

Ryan Schmelz reports on the ongoing government shutdown and recalls the longest shutdown in U.S. history where military families waited in food lines at bases like Fort Hood and TSA workers took second jobs while air travel risked disruption. He outlines how SNAP recipients could face strain if the standoff continues. He explains Democrats’ negotiation stance, disputes over rescinding approved funds and debates over ACA premium tax credits. The segment also covers talks of a compromise, discussion of congressional pay during shutdowns, and the broader financial stakes of the budget impasse including potential $500 billion healthcare premium implications.
