I cannot think of a more crystallized example of wrong headed priorities than undermining our democracy instead of funding people's health care. But they did that. So we will continue to engage the legislature. I urged them to come back the next month. In fact, I called them back. They refused to come back to do their basic job. So I will keep calling on them to do their job. Make sure that our healthcare system continues to work and understand the consequences of their failure. (45:24–45:31)
