Exactly. It is an outlay to insurance providers of 60 billion so they won’t raise premiums as they openly threaten to. (or pay the 30 billion to continue funding Obamacare)
As Dan Bongino says, they should call their bluff and make them do it. He does give the Leftists who designed Obamacare credit for intentionally making this a poison pill issue.

Yeah, that was an interesting point.
The media are helping the Dems get away with a slick one, as usual.

One of the issues that have arisen with Obamacare is the expanded Medicaid programs. Originally funded 90% by the feds, they are now being cut loose to be funded by the states, and they are going broke. In Illinois and Ohio, maybe others, Medicaid has stopped paying their providers for many authorized services. If nothing changes, soon the growing shortage of doctors willing to take Medicaid patients will explode and collapse the system. Just like the dems planned it. This bill is a lame attempt to forestall the collapse with a costly multibillion dollar bandaid.
