Cutting or eliminating healthcare for millions of Americans in order to release food assistance is unacceptable. The Republicans flat-out refuse to negotiate on this and are willing to let millions of Americans go hungry until they agree to have their healthcare made unaffordable or taken away all together.

That's not a choice, that's extortion and terrorism.

The Republicans own this. Their narrative on this needs to be broken by the Democrats.
