Newsom Blasts Senate Dems for 'Betrayal' in Shutdown Deal
Newsom calls the deal a betrayal as eight moderate Senate Democrats end a 40-day shutdown without securing enhanced tax credit guarantees, amid pressure to reopen government.
- Late Sunday night, California Gov. Gavin Newsom blasted the U.S. Senate deal as `betrayal` and `capitulation` after it included only a promise of a vote on Obamacare subsidies.
- Schumer privately pushed moderate Senate Democrats to hold the line until Nov. 1, and one moderate said they deferred to Schumer and the caucus during a recent caucus meeting.
- Several Senate Democrats joined to advance the measure, with Dick Durbin, Jacky Rosen, Jeanne Shaheen, Maggie Hassan and Tim Kaine joining John Fetterman, Catherine Cortez Masto and Angus King, while Republican Sen. Rand Paul, Kentucky, was the sole GOP holdout on the continuing resolution.
- The deal closed the 40-day shutdown but eight moderate Senate Democrats accepted it without guarantees for enhanced tax credits, prompting California Gov. Gavin Newsom to say the American people need more from their leaders.
- Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., amplified calls to replace Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., arguing he is `no longer effective and should be replaced` if he can’t stop looming premium hikes, while liberal critics in both chambers fired a broad backlash.
