US govt shutdown a tale of healthcare and rescissions which undermine Congress' power of the purse
The US is confronting a fresh cycle of uncertainty after President Donald Trump and Congress failed to strike an agreement to keep government programs and services running. Disagreement stemmed from a deadlock in Congress over Democratic demands over health care and Republican efforts to kick that can down the road. At issue are tax credits that have made health insurance through the Affordable Care Act more affordable for millions of people since the COVID-19 pandemic. For in-depth analysis and a deeper perspective, Genie Godula welcomes Todd Belt, Professor and Director of the Political Management Program at George Washington University's Graduate School of Political Management (GSPM).
