Question asked previously, is Schumer "fighting" for the small minority of the population that benefits from ACA subsidies, or is he fighting for the insurance companies that fear they'll lose 20M customers if the subsidy ends, at the expense of 42M on SNAP, at the expense of the government workers who are forced to work without pay?

The answer is probably neither. Or both. Whichever.

The Democrats needed to hold back their vote for the CR, and healthcare is one of the few major areas where voters trust Democrats more than Republicans to be in charge. And the subsidies are popular. That's why the Democrats are making the subsidies their ask.
