Published | Video Starts at 08:34

But we have Republicans that are in charge of the House Representatives, the Senate and the White House that are refusing to do that. And it's going to cost you more expensive premiums. I was just going to say Democrats are ready. We're ready to negotiate. We're ready to strike a deal. We're ready to reopen government, and we're ready to protect health care. We have to do all of it in this moment. The American people want it and we're here to do it. And that is shut down for dummies. Thank you. (08:34–08:42)
