As the 43-day U.S. government shutdown finally winds down, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries sends a defiant message to President Trump and congressional Republicans: “The fight is not over.”
Jeffries says Democrats will continue pushing to extend health care subsidies that millions of Americans depend on, despite the shutdown deal excluding those provisions.
In a powerful interview with CBS News’ John Dickerson, Jeffries accused the GOP of triggering the shutdown and vowed to “force Republicans to vote” on protecting Affordable Care Act tax credits.
With grocery and utility costs soaring, Jeffries insists Democrats are just getting started — setting the stage for another major battle over health care, spending, and working-class relief.
