Yeah - of two Senators. Although I'm sure there was probably a companion house bill as well. That's what they wanted, and I'm sure that lots of other Democratic Senators would love to have all the health care provisions of the OBBB stripped out - but that's not the same thing as them insisting that those are the requirements for them to pass the CR.


That bill was literally their counterproposal. Had way more than 'just extend the ACA subsidies' in it.

And Murray is Minority Chair of the Appropriations Committee, which makes this piece of legislation their documented stance on the matter. It's not just some rando bill.
