Well, what I've been told is there are enough Democrats who will co sponse to that. But right now I think they're still holding out hope that they can extend all the subsidies. I just believe [the extension of all subsidies] is dead on arrival here in the Senate. We voted that down multiple times during the shutdown. That's just not going to happen.

CLAIM

Asserts that the extension of all subsidies is unlikely to pass in the Senate.
