President
Donald Trump on Saturday floated a potential compromise amid the impasse over
the U.S. government shutdown, urging Republicans to redirect federal money that
currently goes to health insurance companies under
the Affordable Care Act and give it to individuals.
"I
am recommending to Senate Republicans that the Hundreds of Billions of Dollars
currently being sent to money sucking Insurance Companies in order to save the
bad Healthcare provided by ObamaCare, BE SENT DIRECTLY
TO THE PEOPLE SO THAT THEY CAN PURCHASE THEIR OWN, MUCH BETTER, HEALTHCARE, and have money
left over," Trump wrote in a social media post.
"In
other words, take from the BIG, BAD Insurance Companies, give it to the
people, and terminate, per Dollar spent, the worst Healthcare anywhere in the
World, ObamaCare," he
added, without offering further details.
Trump's
comments on Truth Social came just hours before the U.S. Senate was set to
reconvene at noon after rejecting legislation on Friday that would have
resumed paychecks for hundreds of thousands of federal workers during the
longest shutdown in U.S. history.
Lawmakers
remained at odds over how to reopen the government.
Democrats
want a funding bill to include healthcare subsidies that are due to expire for
24 million Americans at year's end, but Republicans say Congress must first
pass a funding bill without strings attached and allow the government to reopen
before tackling other issues.
Representatives
for the White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment on
Trump's post.
Representatives
for U.S. Senate Majority Leader John Thune and Senate Democratic Leader Chuck
Schumer also did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
