Very quickly, Senator, so not a promise from Republicans of the White House to negotiate a solution on health care premiums or Obamacare subsidies. There has to be a solution before you will vote to reopen the government. There has to be a solution or there has to be assurances that I can believe in that. I know that at the end of the day, 24 million Americans are going to feel comfortable in knowing that their insurance premiums are not going to be doubled. Right now, I'm not hearing those assurances. I'm not sure they're not showing any type of, you know, responsibility that they're willing to take as much as I do to make sure that doesn't happen.
