Senator Andy Kim Announces Opposition to  Government Funding Deal that Ignores Healthcare Crisis

WASHINGTON D.C. –Tonight, Senator Andy Kim (D-NJ) released the following statement in opposition to an announced government funding deal that does not include an agreement to lower healthcare costs for millions of Americans:
“I can’t support this bill. It doesn’t meet the urgency of the moment and deliver actual relief that can pass both chambers of Congress,”said Senator Andy Kim.“I’ve been clear that we need real action to stop the devastating healthcare cost increases that are hurting millions of families. Trump and Republican leaders created this crisis, and they’ve only used it to make things worse for working families by withholding food assistance for millions for their own political gain. This fight isn’t over, and I’m going to continue to stand with so many who are being hurt.”
